If you like Ginetta's and fancy a seven type car try looking at the Raw Pheonix. I used to love the look of these and think the bodywork looked better in previous incarnations (there has been a fair few versions of the bonnet through its various manufacturers lol) but they are pretty much a 7 with bodywork and a touch extra weight/comfort. http://www.striker-cars.co.uk/?cat=16

Stick a bigger donk in it and bung it through an SVA and it could be a cheap little bit of fun  :wink:.

Why not go get something light and very scary? Enough grunt to kill you very quickly in this. Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the Westfield SEight, effectively a Westfield with a stonking great V8 in it. What's not to love???  :grin: :grin: :grin:



That said, they're a bit pricey. Shouldn't be too difficult to build one though... :laugh:

The output of the Rover V8.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

On the subject of rover powered cars, have you taken a look at the price of TreVoRs? Shoddilly buil but theres more than enough parts suppliers around and as long as the chassis isnt rotten they can be a blast in that old school fashion.
