Shock Horror - My Chevettes for sale

[racer86]

Nooooo i hear you cry , well hear me out and then tell me if I'm mad.

Ive put it up with a reserve so it wont necessarily sell.
As it stands the car is well developed for the set up its running and i think its a shame to put the obvious big engine in it as its so rare to have a tuned 1256
I cant be doing with a stagnent project but feel without a major change this car has,for me, reached its peak of development and i want so many other cars (that your fault RR) and am iching for a new project
If the car does not sell i wont be dissapointed, you all know how much ive put into this car and how much i love it. I will give the car a make over and bring it back again with a twist!

If any RR'ers are interested PM me and see if we could sort something out - id love it to go to one of you guys ;D

[hairnet]

now you know why racer next project 06 was voted for ;D

I am after a chevette/kadett at the minute but I am thinking of along the lines of yours but a bit different and I would feel guilty about butchering yours to suit my plans
In some ways I think it would be better if it left the forum as it would be a real shame to see it changed from how it is now.

Best of look with the auction. And waiting in anticipation for your next ride ;D

[SteB]

its gotta go to a RR'der !!

If i wasnt a ridiculously overdrawn student with two cars already, i'd be really interested.

Good luck!

[racer86]

Thanks guys really appreciate you not all calling me a nutter.It will break my heart to see it go, but then there is new things to look foward to. If it stays a bit of remodelling is in order!

[racer86]

The guy whos winning it now (neil8166) is going to strip it and cut it up (he wants it lengthened as per works tarmac cars) and just use the shell as a spare for his rally car!!!!!!

Might be worth reading the endurance rally regs on Chevettes.com Rob

As I have a funny Idea this is spot on for that, if so, it opens up your market quite considerably ;D

[PhoenixC]

I know for the lombard revival endurance rally engine mods are not allowed, this includes exhaust manifolds and carbs. Suspension must use standard mounting points so turrets are a no go . Also it must keep standard interior apart from front seats and steering wheel

I am not sure on the endurance rally championship but I believe that they are following the same basic regs as the Lombard so that the same cars can enter.

The seller lowered the reserve price

hold out for more, its worth it....
