Post by: 71CALRIPPER on October 26, 2008, 20:32:25 pm
One of my best mates and Club members new car built around 6 years ago i think full works from the Paintbox and Bernie :)
Really loving the late looker , 1776 , Baby Mahles needs a deep clean and a few changes but i think its a really cool car

That'll be my Car then ...  ;D
Its been sat unsed for the last few years though the owner was chucking a fair bit of money at it keeping an MOT on it.
Its had all the brakes gone through and the engine tuned up.
I'll be out doing some demo runs for VW sportsman at Flame and Thunder this weekend.
No wheel stands as yet but its a fun car to hoon about in.

More Pics eh?
Managed to get a Run at Flame and Thunder ... unlike a lot of people only took about 6 hours waiting!
Jumped straight out of first on the line so some better gearbox mounts are needed! Then the rain started coming down.
One from Brighton Breeze

One of the Baby Gasburners is buckled so if anyone has a spare they want to sell drop me a line

Nice...

What are the few changes planned? I vote for slightly bigger tyres out back new number plates (or states plates may look cool) and T-bars.
