Hi Backfire

Yep, we have this 5 days issue we haven't managed to fix.

But welcome here, however !

The interior, to become more like a 1930 T-ford with stand allone steering colum and in the middle the speedo meter with gauges etc


The rear (inspiration by Olli), notice the 3rd brake light. Planning is to use rear lights in the shape of the citroen logo made with LED's.


And of course some bit of lowering, the base of it all.

Hey Backfire, i like what you are doing there. The boot lid idea looks good and i like the clean lines on the dashboard. Cant wait to see the finished car. Keep putting on the photo's when you can. Cool

hehehe, yep pics of that too, but you will have to wait. Although the tubo charging project is put on ice now, first the body, then the engine.

Turbo charging with suck through 1970's system and with a Daihatsu tiny turbo. Lowered compresio to 1:7, something. Aim is 50HP, that's enough for the changed gearbox. Gearbox is standard 2cv with Dyane final gear and 155 tyres.

Simple and effective, no expensive injection system, fuel system, computer. Keep it simple like a 2cv Very Happy

Very Happy yes, it's simple solution, but you can't use intercooler and boost over 0.3b or 0.4b Confused

I use injection and intercooler with 0.7b currently ( test over 1b Twisted Evil )

Wink great car Wink
