Lee your car looks great. I wish I'd seen it with these wheels on.
Can't wait for mine to be finished so we can meet up again.

I need to collect parts for it to make the conversion run as smooth as possible and give me a fighting chance of it running nicely thanks for the nice words ;)

When we had our meeting in Thailand we saw a similar setup. It was a blast to rev that one through nightly Bangkok!

Love it exactly what I want!! :) im thinking I need a facet pump some pipe,t fuel banjo to tidy up the hosing to the first carb and maybe a filter king to regulate with a pressure gauge and then I'm gonna take it to someone to get its tuning just right
