Collo did you know that there was a real Gulf team that had mk1's amongs't their cars?

 

is that a remote resivour for the brakes ?

 

Really?, that sounds like a challenge for Mr Eyre to come up with the goods

 

Hi,yes it is but is shortly due to be replaced as bias pedal box is arriving soon

 

got any better pics . is it ok ?

 

I will post some pics for you later....

 

Tried to adjust colour in the washed out 2:


I had them among some other stuff to go in the VW Racing thread but hadn't put them in yet.

 

Cheers for that,where do you guys find these? , I must admit I used the 917 as my inspiration for the colours

 

I spend a lot of time on sites catering for cars between 70's & 80's.

I have other Gulf cars about if you ever want me to post them up.

 

Beautiful job - what are you going to do with it?

Need I point out that you owe your dad MANY beers ?!

 

lovin that, have u got more iterior pics??

Had a very busy and productive weekend started off by getting one of these

Then back to the garage and replaced interior trim with Carbon Panels from the old Trimsport car




Then replaced cylinder head with TSR Pack A,Piper Cams (Ultimate),and a vernier pulley also replaced cooling fan ,water pump and gearlinkages









Also fitted new Omp pedals



Off to the rolling road on Thursday morning for set up and then Brands on the 17th for track evening

 

This thing looks cool as feck!

 

1st class car/thread! I will also be at Brands on the 17th...in my mk1 trackday wagon (2.0 16v - rollcentre cage- quaife diff/s/rack- gaz gold coilovers 825kgs etc etc). Unfortunatley excess pie eating on my part will be the slowing factor in the whole package. I very much look forward to seeing you there. Best regards Chris

 

thats a bit sexy. nice

 

cracking car, where did you get the arches?

 

I think? he said he made them (in a previous thread).

 

Apologies to those at Brands ,I wimped out earlier this week as it was supposed to be peeing it down ,and then sun shine's all day , oh well ,will drive down later for a look.
