looks good dude, how did you get that front end to line up so well!

keep it up ;)

front end still needs a bit of work but thats not important at the minute

Great build, really like this. Carbs look intriguing, some kind of homebrew twin setup? or am I missing something? :wub:

Keep it up, JJ


there just standard twin 1" 1/2 su just need a overhaul but i wont be using them on this seeing as its going to be a 2.0 8v vauxhall engine fitted to it :D
