Fell in love with this car couple of years ago at fordfair, got some pics of it actually, so glad ive found thread, keep up the excellent work. You should also post on xrtwo.com and fiesta-mk1, you would get a great response.

That inside shot is great... but I can't help wondering.. with all the rest of the detail you've done.. how long is it gonna be before you get aggravated by the fact it's not polished to a mirror finish inside as well as out...  Awesome work.. I really wish I had the time and equipment to learn even one little portion of what you know. Maybe one day. |

As Tim and the others have said - green with t'envy fella. Your dad or you interested in teaching??? Great work as always - threads like this and OB's, Streets etc... drive me back into the garage thinking 'that could be better' - drives me mad! Keepin a weather eye out. John |

Fantastic fabbing dude, that looks like it'll be a right laugh, I've always been a fan of small motors blown. Keep up the good work |

Random thought but if you wanted to fit an Eaton blower to a 'backwards spinning' Honda lump, could you use an idler-shaft to 'reverse' the direction? As handily demonstrated using MSPAINT:  *n or get a double sided belt and run it on the other side thus doing away with the idler shaft... (pm me for more clarity if intersted) |
