Re: Stylussprinter's Stylus
OK 1 to 18 pic's
1)flip open after repairs showing my kevlar engine guards cut from second hand floor panels and gold heat reflector over heat mat , curticy of a friend in F1.
2)2008 Abingdon chicane with engine upgrade but still sporting a one piece body.
3)upgraded engine just collected from Paul Dunnell . This is my original block and head that ran on 45's until 2006 .
4)shutting edge being made up after my tree shunt ready for a new hinged flip designed front end.
5)small bonnet bonded in to the cut and shut new half body made by Tim Duffee just 2mm's thick. Carbon fibre strengtheners needed to prevent it flapping around.
6)originally the body shell sat higher on the road so had smaller arches. My modded car at 90mm's front chassis height needed the arches cut out 35mm's and flared 40mm's to just cover the wheels , hence the holes to help bonding.
7)space framed Escort trying hard to beat my time , exiting Goodwood's chicane. 15th May 2010.
8)me trying to make sure he doesn't and lifting the inside front.
9)exiting Goodwood's chicane for my first ever wet win in 2009.
10)upgraded engine installed before body damage with own made airbox fitted to house 115mm's trumpets.Air pipe 100mm's to grill filter.
11)kevlar flare overlapping inside and filled to give extra support.
12)looking very poorly at home after the tree incident.
13)fettling for a tidy shutting edge and air vents cut out.
14)ready to paint now.
15)outside for a wash before trailering to paint.
16)front cut off approximately for easier suspension repairs. Exact cut when the body arrives.
17)suspension repaired plus all new rodends for safety. Hinge and radiator yet to be done.
18)Tim Benbow SSC Stylus manufacturer making the first cut . I'd already designed the hinge system to allow full opening before the body came .You can see he's in thinking mode ---- think twice --- cut once .
