hadnt thourght of that. could well be. im only the the 4th owner on the car . brought it from a bloke in essex whom originally got it off some fella who done shite loads of work on it . it was built to take a cosworth lump, but sold on instead. im wondering if this fella is "gromit"? thourght i would post up and see if it was someone on here

[Slammed]

for a fiver do a dvla history check on our car should give contact details for all previous owners and find out who this 'grommit' is...maybe he has a friend called wallace?

[GT_lenny]

id guess its been put on by a previous owner who restored/modified it at some point
