spenny's ride

hey all....thought I would share my car with you all...bought it back in 2004 with the intention of building a cal looker....i'm getting there with it....i'll post some pics and spec up soon but for now heres a shot f the bug when i bought it

Lovin your bug Spenny

thanks dude......

a quick update on BFY....managed to fit the new cb performance rear disc brake kit......and I have no brake judder which is a major result.....MOT this week....but managed to get a few spins in the bug the other day....got a few niggles to sort over the next few months but nothing major.....i'll definately be at the next meet in the car

Glad you got the judder sorted bud can wait to see this bug go Andy told me all about his little trip in it He was well impressed...

Cheers Rich got to sort out the suspension set up and that bloody front beam i've only been revving it to 5000rpm and fook me it shifts.....apparantly according to the engine builder it will rev to about 8000rpm .........cant wait to sort out the niggles and really put my foot down that judder problem was really weird must have been something strange going on with the drum set up....but i'm just glad its was'nt a gearbox or axle problem

Top news Spence.
Glad to hear your arse end troubles are sorted.
Looking Sweet bud.

Im loving the car dude that is a sexy ride good work

cheers dude....i'm really looking forward to getting this car on the strip next season...just got to iron out all the bugs over the winter and have a freshen up

I am loving this car! Bet it looks good cruizin around in the summer

thanks Moup....however it did no crusing this summer (well a little i guess) due to some mechanical issues, which is expected when you have a 200 bhp monster in the back teething troubles I call it, there are a few things i'm not 100% happy with so i'm going to sort them by next spring (hopefully)

heres a pic of the monster...a few thing have changed in the engine bay got a berg signature oil breather and changed the position of the fuel regulator, but it should help you get the idea




but it did alot of crusing last summer

last year it looked like this



2 months later and it had stand offs and no bumpers

That motor looks awesome! What sort of money would I need to invest to get something similar?

I don't necessarily want 200 horses, just a reliable useable bug, oh, and I have to have one where the boot lid shuts properly! That is one of the stipulations from she who shall be obeyed!

far too much to be honest...if i were you i'd find a good solid usable car which puts a smile on your face rather than anyone else's and above all else drive it
