New Sil80 Project !!!

[Spartacus]

Would look unreal on all 4 wheels you used to have on the Rex, nice work!

[SIMO]

That style wheel would be cool alright but the offset and width arnt upto the style of the body i want with the widebody,so the works are staying on it as they work well with the style low and wide!!

Was at the car this morn and finally have it running, had no spark which was easily solved with a bad earth on the coilpack loom that was grand then no fuel so traced it back to bad wiring on the pump so that sorted that and it started first turn after that, happy out.Now ive to put the brakes on and bleed the lot.will prob do that tonight and cut the exhaust and re-angle it to get it sitting as far up as i can under the body with a small bit of room for play then ill go for a spin tomoz!!!
