You might need a fresh engine for that lovely looking thing shortly ;-)

I’m hoping that you and your buddies at RSR will make it a priority as of Monday?

I will pass on your regards ;-)

It is the sameflat six that it has had since the late 70’s

i have added the longer stroke crankshaft and over sized pistons etc, should be about 2.55 litre
Modena LSD and all the usual expensive bits.

Thanks Chris. I was wondering if you were going back to original. Good luck with it.

Originality is not a priority for me, I wanted to build the car to suit my taste.

Chris,
Looks amazing!

Tried to remove all the fine scratches (and not so fine) that the car had accumulated during the assembly process, spent yesterday adding a "Nano" ceramic coating to hopefully offer some protection from contaminates etc.
