Like i said its a nice spec but it needs a few bits finishing and sorting out mainly the infernal squeaking! I know its got braces n stuff everywhere so that could have some thing to do with it. Ill find out eventually!anyway nearly all my b18 rebuild stuff is here from the states waiting on headgasket and valve stem oil seals. Looking for a lightened flywheel and clutch for it at the min and light under drive pulley. pics will follow when i get a decent camera! just pics i got of the advert when i bought it.
I know this car very well (sounds dodgy lol)...its my b/f's brothers old car aka streaky, funnily enough it also turned up on the Rebel forum and I have been on a run with it in Wales with the guy I guess you bought it from 8-|
cool! it seems pretty good in fairness. just niggles! Think im too picky sometimes. anyway ill post up the work im doing soon. B18c had a steam clean on friday, looks nice! thanks again
Some new pics!
