A few questions.

1. How will the car be transported. Tow vehicle / Trailor

2. Who will source parts.

3. Who will book events.

4. Who will do the work to the car. Where and when.

5. Will the car be road legal. Mot, tax, insurance, log book

6. How will it be funded. As and when or small regular contributions into a fund.

nothing set in stone yet pablo ; i am guessing possibly.

1. correct

2. the collective owners

3. the collective owners , as long as a certain % can make the event.

4. the collective owners at a predetermined venue and date ( in talks atm regarding venue)

5. i would say probably no, more cost and hassle but open to discussion.

6.again depending on numbers possilbly an intial payment for purchase/prep work and then possibly a small monthly contribution for running costs .

This is only a rough outline pablo as we are yet to really thrash this out and see the numbers and budget we are dealing with . I'm sure Stu will be able to give you more details .

happy christmas

Why oh why would someone pick that engine?
Great power, but a heavy old lump in a Zed; it's going to properly upset handling balance in a space framed Anglia.

Nice budget too Matt

I'll grant you, it does look like a lot of laughs

How about this?

Ignore the bullshit 'race car' tag (out of date seats, non compliant harnesses, no cage nor fire extinguisher etc etc) but could be a great candidate and looks nice too.

Nice car Stu! But am i sailing wide of the mark thinking this was surposed to be a budget Hack? Would it not be better to have something cheap and simple that if it breaks/get bent it could be patched up with a piece of string and gaffa tape. Plus if someone does wipe it out then no one will get the mega hump because they have killed the team pride and joy?
I was thinking a few hundred quid for the car and few more hundred for setting it up?
What about this?

Always fancied boosting a CVH Sierra, get an RS lump easy enough. Or lob a carb'd Pinto into it
