I saw this car in the flesh today and its beeeutiful. Oz has done a fantastic job on this.

Cheers for the cf front end mate i am well pleased with it. :thumbsup: :D

If you get a chance the dimensions for the flip front brackets would be very handy but no rush in your own good time.

Quick question... On your supercharger kit, does the carb have to bolt straight on to the S/C, or could you route it round the side or front of the engine?

It's basicly a Spitfire Y section and 2 TR4 race back boxes from our Triumph Tune range...totally one off and uniue >_< sounds lovely as well. However the battery box has been cut in half to fit it and a s/s heat sheild has been tigged in.
