I have just caught up with the owner, I think his name was Doug. It is running a vn 5 litre V8, with a harrop 355 stroker, full exhaust n ****. runs a 5 speed and spun through a new LSD. isnt as quick as wat its made out to be, gets flogged by the little black GTiR, so runs about a 13-14 second quarter. He wants 18,000 for it as he wants to build a VL from scratch....

This topic will answer a lot of your questions. His name is Phil Bordic. Hes just put a c.o.m.e manifold on there, looking pretty fancy now. Oh and hes keeping it now too.

i think its going alot better than it did before. he told me it dynoed at 160 odd kw BEFORE he put the manifold on, so im hoping its going better than that now..

hes got all new suspension for it (adjustable coilovers etc) and he's about to get a new set of rims. 20"s being the likely option.

oh and the gauges arent on the bonnet anymore..

saw your car in town the other night headake, first time ive seen you out in ages. my cars still at wefix but im told im gettin it back tomoro, then it goes back to the panel beater. then one day, maybe one day ill get to drive the ****in thing again
