Took a trip to Aries Motorsport with a land rover and trailer today and came back with one of these.....







Build thread is over on Retro-Rides....

just read your thread over there. I too did mech eng (did maths first) but didn't want to work with cars as a job. I like the build though!

I build cars because I want to, not because I have to.

Your approach to building a brake system is very similar to mine.

there seems to be something fundamentally wrong with your build........... you have a bike engine in the shed and not a car engine

good luck with the build mate, hope it all goes well!

I used Diahatsu Applause rear calipers. They're tiny and have a handbrake.


And fit in a 13" rim.
