my dad's motor!

Just thought I'd show you what my dad's been upto!

This is the result of me building a kit car in his workshop, he decided he had to have a go and go one better by building a Cobra. He has fully rebuilt the engine taken from a Chvy pick-up truck and it is now sat next to my half finished Indy. I have to say it makes my 2L Pinto look rather pathetic. The engin is now waiting for the part built chassis he bought to be stripped and rebuilt.

I like the spacer behind the crank pulley, is it a pit tub wheel? . Only kidding, I bet you can't wait to see it fitted, or will he want your parking space then?.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

The kit was a Southern Roadcraft, which is now Madgwick. He bought it part built with chassis, running gear and a fibreglass. And yes he is after my space now, which gives me a good excuse to spend more time on it
