corsair 2 door so far

[slappy]

Hello all I thought I would stick a few pictures on of my goodwood green two door that was on the road a year ago doing all the events, I then chose to change the engine and it has snowballed, engine has been built by throbnozzel racing and the car is nearly back to bare metal

engine mock up staying precrossflow but with 1660 bottom end

Nice, I like the Corsair and you don't see many of them. You can probably count on your hands the number of them in here!

hopfully welding will start within the month, not much to do it has a nearly perfect shell, but still loads to do when back from paint.

I think I have got the most in bedfordshire, around 40 two doors left now

I saw this one at a local show last year and thought

you either love them or you hate them, I had just sold my last yank and it was a toss up between a mk1 lotus or a corsair, thought the corsair would be different, on the deck with cream lotus rims and a sorted lump with a barking set of 40's.

Ohhh I like 2 dooor Corsairs, I wish I still had mine, but I wrote it off about 25 years ago

its nice to see people restoring these. theyre not the most popular for some reason but once a few good ens are churned out itl inspire others.

This was my Corsair estate as it came out of the barn in cambride, one owner the farmer, but what a mamouth welding task, once striped out and put on its side if it had not been one owner hand the history tax disc ect all from the same garage and been serviced by the same mechanic, I wold have scraped it 6 months worth of welding, more pictures later
