front spoiler

Graham, this looks awesome And the garage in the picture looks very familiar. Perhaps I've picked some bits up from you in the past?...

How is that front bumper mounted, it looks great! Might be a nice solution for radiators at the front without eating into the bodywork.

More stats and spec on the car needed!

Not sure if you have had bits off me before mate I am in Surrey .Garage has been knocked down since pics where taken.

I will get some more pics of the bumper uploaded as soon as poss.I think I need to start a thread on how and whats been done to the car to keep you guys happy .I wasn't intending putting it on here until I was happy with how its turned out.The current engine is a 2 liter turbo subaru but its giving me major headaches due to the so-called specialist who fitted it.I cant say to much at this stage for legal reasons but lets just say Iv'e got the right hump about it at the moment.

You certainly need your own thread... Is the reason you haven't shown rear end pics because the cam covers are sticking out of the back end?

No just wanted to get if finished then post pics on build and other stuff.But unfortunately I have made some discoveries recently that look like I am going to have to take the engine installer to court.
Thats why I am looking into other areas of the build(aerodynamics etc) the engine side of things is making my blood boil at the moment and the less said about it the better.
I have been a user of this site for ages but have rarely posted much. I am a real novice when it comes to restoring cars.This is my first real attempt and as I lacked the skills and knowledge I have had to rely on others to carry out the work.As you can guess one garage has TRIED to **** me over.
I have put my efforts into endless hours of research and how I want the car to look and what parts to use .
I think I will start a thread on the build.
PS thanks for your comments Ricola I have emailed you in the past to pick ya brains and did recently on info on a G50 .Your builds another car I have been looking at for ages gaining info ,knowledge and the will to to carry on and finish mine.I nearly sold the car a month or two ago as I was so frustrated.

Subaru's are cool! Well, when it's ready, send me a picture of the engine bay. I would like to put it in my other conversions gallery: Link to gallery
