They dont f****ng rot, do they..
Bloody things hold their value very well considering it's such a small engine, 3 wheels, a bit of metal and a block of plastic melted over it all.

Had the Engine ready too.. 50 quid off a scrappy, delivered to my Mate's house.
Gutted. We both reckoned it'd eat any hot hatch at Santa Pod

My godfather had a V8 Rover engine in a Hillman Imp, it could do the snake hips dance when you planted it
Then of course there was the v8 my brother in law and me fitted into a D type, very hairy

Ooh, shiny!
The flash on the camera doesn't make it look very tidy, it's better in day light.

I'm thinking gold snake skin with flourescent orange leather flames stiched up the side and a row of pointly metal studs across the back. Nice

Just won a pair of black stainless FJ1100 N-ETA cans on e-bay, brand new factory seconds from Motad themselves, £80. Should have some fun with these, I'm thinking 80's musclebike/present day MotoGP inspired black stubbies, core them, chuck a bit of carbon fibre at them and see what sticks. Should be suitably mean looking, suit the bronze/black paint nicely and be bowel movingly deep 'n' loud.
