Wow, fair bit of progress Josh.

Cage looks tasty.

Yeah its not too bad considering its only dad doing the work this year. Cage should add some nice rigidity, but not add too much weight!

Thats the plan Alex, its going to be pretty quick once dad get its remapped to 260bhp tho!

It won't be a match for the derv though
pure trooper car

IMO you should give the old girl a thrashing at the ring not your car!!

Lol @ the derv, that thing just keeps going and going, awesome motor, especialy for all the bumps in nuneaton!

agree josh i love my derv 10k's worth of abuse and happy.

hows the beach?

car is nice

progress :noo:

Here's some pics of where its at so far. Most of the main cage is done (tacked into position), just waiting on materials to do the extra work that Josh has asked for!.

Matt

This car has always been a personal favourite of mine ever since i saw it in French Car Mag.......and its now getting better and better!!!!!!!

Keep up the good work guys.

Wow, cage looks nicely fitted.

Is that Matt Newton's handy work?

cheers guys :D

More updates to come shortly....

josh.... your making me want a cage now...

I've been following this on shed, absolutely love it!:y:

After a 70 mile around trip i picked up the chrome moly tube to finish the cage off today. Ive also added some harness eyelets on spreader plates as requested by Josh.

Here is some pics of it finished.

Wooooop :D

Love it! Looks great. Bet you cant wait for 2 months time now?:)

you going to be painting it for the ring?

Nah it wont be painted for the ring Olly, will just brush some primer on it for now, don't have time and want to remove all the brackets and soundeadening etc before it's painted - will be doing a proper job with our spray gun aswell

I'm thinking mango for the interior and the cage in gloss black, what do people reckon?

Yes yes yes :y:

Cage looks awesome :D

Agreed on the interior colour scheme...however could be a complete ass masking it all off for the 2 colours
