Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral punto driver kit car (locost)

hey peeps just thought it was time i start a topic on my kit car ive been tellin u all about. Pics to come soon.

here ya go bud

Wow, ur doin well. Thought u hadnt started it yet. Green cars go faster eh?

How big is that engine?

Cheers scoop its running a 1600 pinto but am looking at getting a cam kit and twin webber DCOE's. Its cost me around the £700 mark so far. This engine is plenty for a car of this weight am looking for about 6secs - 60.

thats looking good allways wnt 1 of these cheap as chips an fast a fook

Think i recognise those wheels.Are they focus uns'

yeah u know ya ford dont ya, picked them up from the breaker for £100 (neptune car spares). 15" are bout as big as u go on these cars many people g for the old rs 2000 compomotive but their only 13" and the focus ones look much beta i think.

They do look nice and big in those ikkle arches. U thinkin of a change once its all complete tho? I assume once its built you'll start tweaking it? Carbs etc. Maybe a set of minilites 14x8? and a cool paintjob?

yep am after the webber DCOE carb and i will more than likely take my nitrouse out the punto and put it in this he he he i can imagine it going to be scary sitting in it and when you look right the rear wheel is there spinning inches away from your head lol

never knew you had nitrous in the puntohavin it in the kit car would be mad

yep all i can say is donuts lots and lots and lots of donuts lol

nice one dude

fantastic.

Ryhs you done a propper good job on this so far mate...seeing it in person you see how much work is required and you should be very proud of yaself for doin sumthin like this...and its gonna be a very difficult car to beat on the road

hey peeps think it been a while, and am going to spend some money on this now aswell. This week end am going to be welding the bracket on to alow me to mount the front wishbones. Also need to obtain a escort mk1or2 back axle if any1 can help me.
