New MAC#1 on the road (pic's)

Well.... a new posting area and a new MAC#1 to look at.
See my pic's in the photo archive (under richard staniforth)

Its a MAC#1 Type 9R (Honda 929 RRY) ....

Thanks to the boys for all the build advice they have given me and especially the extra effort they put in to get it through the SVA (the dreaded Emissions).

So what do you think?.

I'll post some of the build and engine later.

Yup i agree, top job there mate. Was your car being looked after by Mac1 a few weeks ago as i'm sure i was drooling over it while picking up some bits from the boys.

Lovely looking car.

How did you pad & trim your seats?

I've got the same bits to pad and trim and you've done a lovely job there.

Are those standard Mac #1 cycle wings?

DO they come in carbon?

Nice Motah!

Those look like bigger than 15" wheels richard. Ive just bonded my wheel arches this weekend. Did you have to cut the arches down to get that snug fit??

I had major troubles getting some cossie wheels on at the front without them hitting the arch mounts. I think its because they were 7” wide rims with 205 profile tyres.

Great looking car btw

Yellow button is for the digidash Logger, not really needed though.

17's for the road (look good).
The side of the arches were cut down (as recommended by MAC1) they look better cut and fit the wheels .
