What does it go like mate? Where did you get those rear arch protectors?

The roll bar is part of the "Caged" FIA cage supplied by Tiger. The front section is just bolted to it.

Can you buy the rear separate from the front? How does it fit, does it just bolt on like the roll bar?

The bonnet was like that when i bought the car - the guy I bought it off was pretty good at bodywork and has done a good job. I think he has cut out
the bonnet and fixed mesh in as its just glued on the back. Not sure about the nose though as mine dosent have the bulge either so must be a
different one.
Shes off the road now till after Xmas as been sorting the exhaust and getting ready for this cage (when they finally arrive at Tiger!) Getting married
in 3 weeks so not got the time to get everything done this year!
Defo would be up for something in the new year though when its done! Want to have a play on a track!
Know that car quite well and remeber talking to the builder at Stoneliegh...
basically it isn't a 'Tiger' Avon! it is the original Avon which was made by someone else and then Tiger bought the rights and
changed the kit slightly. the guy (wish i could remember his name!) also made the tunnel top by hand and it looks superb....
the side bulge on the bonnet is a relatively new feature (about 5 years IIRC) which Tiger added to allow for carbs on a Zetec.... I have the bulge
despite my Pinto but have opened up the front to allow some cool air to get to the exghaust headers

Sorry for late reply, just got back from my 40th birthday holiday in Dubai
NeilP, firstly thanks and secondly i think Joe has answered your question about sourcing it but your final question about the front/rear i`m not sure
on. I dont think you will to be honest but MAC#1 will make you one if you wish 01142511016(MARK/COLIN).
Yazza, did we meet in Sheffield at the supercar meeting late last year?
Daniel, it did go well with the last engine in which is pictured earlier. It kicked out around 185 hp and last trip out at Cadwell was pitched level
with an MNR which had a 150hp R1 engine in that weighed nothing. I have sold it now and am just about to finish off a new build which will be
approx(fingers crossed) 230 hp which should push it along nicely
The arch protectors were made by a guy who does it in his spare time.They are carbon fibre not ABS and he can be contacted on julianeisel@aol.com.
