K series

[Absenthe]

like the look of the R1 Paul, Would it be ok to see it some time soon as i m in Glos?

As for Ian, Your view on the Diesel is ok, But i ve had not many problems with diesel's in cars, as i m working in the HGV industry now i have a general love for them, the smell, the smoke, the sound.

Call me crazy, i just like them, and there Rpm Range.

But i love Bikes too, so i m easy.

Phil,
That would be fine. It would be nice to discuss the front end with someone who has already begun that part. Drop me a line on my email , I will send you a contact number and we can arrange a weekend or evening to suit.

Be good to come and take a look at your freestyle as well.

Great stuff Paul will do, as for my 3-Style, I have only a donner K series and waiting for Dave and Co, to get the Production Chassis on the line. But will still be great to give you my views and ideals, and take ideals from yours if you dont mind that is, I'll send you an Email and we can sort it.

Its been a busy weekend for me, however i have spoken to Dave and need to post some pics of the Diesel Engine bay and subframe, so he can see if anymore Mods will be needed for the Chassis.

Will put them up as soon as i get chance.

So Dave any luck with the K series yet?

As my Girlfriends car (My Doner) is up for new MOT Soon and i have a large feeling it will fail from being a Fred Flintstone style car.

Any news on the K would be good news, I hear from other members its being a problem?

Regards

Phil

To add more to this Dave, i was offered a Mini last week MOT failure, went to collect yesterday and the git f""ked me around and said he does not want to sell it now unless i give £300, i told him what i thought of him for messing me around. And so.....

Come to the point where i see, as we talked about. The K series is the better way to go, as they are 10 too a penny and the mini's now in the way of cheap way of putting life into a scrap car are becoming rocking horse shit.

I m pissed off that i was messed around with the doner but maybe its a sign, i ve looked on total kit car, and for a lowcost easy to build buggy on the K series you may have it when its done, Blitz want silly money for there K series buggy, not that they are bad cars, just money aint growing on tree's now days.

Also think you could knock something up like this for the R1 version?

Hope to see you and the K series buggy at the Kitcar show in november.

you're not alone in thinking that about mini donor's Phil.....they seem to be making top dollar these days?! I have a mate tho,with about 10 mini's in his (mums) garden and she's a bit pistoff and wants rid,so theres plenty goin beggin if its just an ID u need? Probly none,bar the pick-up he's keeping would see theMOT again,so let me know if anyone needs a cheap ID/lobgook.

 

[Absenthe]

hey wulliecosse,

i would be interested in the mini, can you have words and get back to me, so long as the price is good i ll travel and get it.

Many thanks.

Phil
