Am I missing something here?

The biggest change is lack of seat belts, rear seats, glass etc!!! |

I wasn't talking about your project Mark but this. |

But don't put him off, I would love to see a ZS only race series one day, I think they are cheap, capable and a great basis for a race car! |
todays progress
Fitted the skirts today, I would have painted up a different set had I noticed these ones have the long bracket on them which doesn't leave indentations on the skirt where the short brackets fit! Bit to good for a track car!
http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5a897adc.jpg Skirts fitted and back on the ground without wheel spacers - it really shows how low it is and desperate for a wider track and wider rims! http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps13f90a7a.jpg The proper 160 exhaust manifolds mated up to a 2.25" scorpion exhaust from a rover tomcat of all cars, just needed the centre box hangers relocating. People go mad paying 500quid for KV6 Janspeeds, yet many VVC ZS conversions just don't bother with the correct 4-2-1 manifolds that the VVC has...they just bolt up the standard 120 mani...I can't get my head around why people cut corners, especially when the VVC mani is for nothing! (I didn't fit this today, just having a rant!) http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...psda7611bb.jpg Bled the brakes again, for the umpteenth time, this time with the calipers off and the bleed nipple pointing northwards - there's either air in the system somewhere or the damn things need a good bedding in, but I don't want to be bleeding brakes on a shakedown http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps61b7bc91.jpg and finally wired up the washer bottle, the car didn't have one when I got it and I may want to fit some brake cooling ducts and the standard washer bottle is right in the way http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...psaba5316f.jpg |
Loving the washer bottle idea....may have to nick that one off you!

love a good project :) must be cold out

I had already gutted the doors, today's job; to see if a door card can be fitted to the drivers door with the door release mech.
http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7998fccd.jpg bit of a prototype, trial fit, seems to work :) http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7c418986.jpg Next onto gutting the bonnet - weight loss, and what a horrible job this is, it would be easier to make a fibreglass bonnet!!! Cutting through the sealant/bonding is really hard work, then your left with it all to grind off... http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9178cdb2.jpg Grinding off ready for primer http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/...psd88e6f77.jpg |
