The Reeves Mk1 - 2006/7 rebuild, Spa vid p18, Ring trip p24, PVW cover car Jan 2011

Duncan Clarkes blk mk1 and Nicolas Bosch's lovely blue kamei mk1 all at Brands Hatch

 

Well, it might have taken a few years, but the The Reeves Mk1 has got its place on the cover of PVW!



It goes without saying that Maurice and the team are made up! Title amended, and dare I say 'props' to Elliott Roberts!

The in-car write up is a peach, I was there as it happened and a finer track session he couldn't have been out in. That's Elliott, sat in the Mk1, about to take out the Radical in the pictures on the prev page of this thread.

No sales pitch needed with that going on

 

I'll defo be going to buy the mag tomorrow, i think thats the second PVW i have bought in a year, must be a record!

 

Good stuff for Elliott giving it the feature, although ,would have liked to have seen it have the cover to itself.

I used to buy every issue and was a subscriber at one point but have not bought it for about 2 years now. Looking forward to grabing a copy & reading the article.

 

Cool. Look forward to reading about DClarkes & think I know the blue one.

 

As a bit of an aside, a smaller scale model for the next stage of aero work has now been produced.

Surprisingly easy to work with & no need for wind tunnels. A camera phone, 3 chain smokers, a hairdryer, a funnel and a Stanley knife are all it needs.

Feverish R&D? You bet!














































Seen at a recent birthday! I was honestly pretty stunned to see a Reeves Mk1 cake

 

lol awesome cake Chris

Coolest Cake Ever

 

Loving that cake also!

 

i read about this car in PVW or something ages ago, back when it had a 16V, and lost track of it until a few nights ago when i stumbled upon this thread.

what an absolute monster. definitely something i'd like to have in my stable.

i don't know if this has been answered already, but what size tires is this monster running?

 

god i got so excited when i realised they maybe a vid of nurburg.....

....so ah is there? : )

Merry Xmas.

Cheers, weird as any words i put in search engine didn't show up even though they are in that thread....

 

205 width on 7x15 inch Dymag magnesium or Compomotive.

 

Stumbled over this one, Maurice on the edge in 16v guise at one of the Club GTI Blyton trackdays, circa '99/2000:



Old skool: bumpers + tinted rear lights! Bo!

Same wheels, just original silver powdercoat back then.

Still bugs me to this day what that arch kit was. It was designed with a sill kit, you can just see by the shape of the lower edge of the front arch: a surplus bit hanging down, designed to blend with a sill section - later trimmed off.

 

Chris,

you dont happen to know how the front door windows are sfitted do you in terms of rubbers?

Thanks

Mike

 

Hi Mike, original rubbers with the quarterlight divider removed - you can see the join:

 

sorry was there a vid of Nurburg made up?
