great car ade,

i followed this string wen u started your project, glad to see you have finished it now. what is she like to drive, i cant download the file on your web page :w00t:

im thinking of doing something similar (spaceframe) or even just a straigh z-cars conversion (tho it is £5000 plus vat), on a std shell on a couple of years, how expensive if you dont mind me asking was the engine?? i like you have a friend who is very interested in doing one too so we mite also be able to buy stuff in pairs to keep costs down!
