Website renovation rescue.
If there was a reality TV show that rescued half finished websites you could call them to finish it and make a show out of it.
That worked with Craig's renovations.
Websites can take a long time to get up and running. http://www.yokohama.com.au
took 18 months with professional website developers working on it.

Good Buy?
It seems Alex is following your philosophy Craig.
You bought your car too didn't you?
It was the Muller & Muller rally car before you owned it was it not?

bought mine from Steve Muller in 94' with no motor or gearbox, less the brakes and rear trailing Arms,standard front beam and standard interior!
I just bought the car for the shell, pan and rollcage !
What I then Did:
Stripped the car and rebuilt it with the following work by ME
#Interior: put in VDO guages, harnesses,race seat, fire extinguisher,sports steering wheel, battery isolator, and relocated battery to the spare wheel
well.
#Front Suspension: Modified a "New" beam, fitted adjusters, castor spacers, camber adjusters,new balljoints,new steering box,new tierods,
Bilstein shocks, country buggy beam reinforcers, whiteline swaybars, rebuilt calipers and machined discs, new bearings.
#Rear Suspension: replaced the torsion bars with Type 3, replaced all rubbers with nolethane,fitted type 3 brakes,new wheel bearings and seals. fitted
whiteline swaybars, Bilstein shocks, set ride height.
#Gearbox: Built by John Spinks. I supplied all the ratios and Quaife diff. I modified all the mounts and made bracing to the rear parcel shelf.
#Brakes: Fitted all new lines, wheel cyclinders,cables, master cylinder
#Replaced all the fuel lines and fitted an electric pump
#Floorpan was fully painted with the body off.
#Engine: Pobjoy.
#Exterior: fitted new drivers door, and bumpers as well as front guards. Repaired the rust, Then did a quick respray. !!
#Wheels : Greg Wards old wide steel ones !
Then I set the height, toe in/out ,camber, swaybars to MY settings.
So what philosophy is he following CT ???
I didn't Know his car had to be fully rebuilt and completely changed from what he purchased !!!
I thought He bought one already done, the best way to buy !:jesus
Wow if it needs all this work like mine, then he has been ripped off CT.
Or Maybe you did not know how mine was when I bought it.:repuke

yeh unfortunatly i have to, to pay my mum back lol. but ill try to keep the fuel injection for another motor in the future... i must say there is a
few things to do but we chose to buy this car in stead of gettin an oval shell and starting from scratch was that this car has countless hours and
money spent on it... we got a page and a half of all the things that was done to the car from bumper to bumper it would reach the 30grand mark to do
it now... is bulladealer on soon? |

You will need a CAMS log book regardless of RTA rego.
1997 CAMS book is waaaaay tooooooooo old
The class has changed several times, so you will need the 2004 manual.
More than Happy to talk to you regarding motor racing at CAMS events.
Will talk soon.

How much did you do to yours Jak
Hay Jak I am Back to keep you mob in line Take some advice dont get caught up in the DAK TO THE FUTURE FRENZIE because their already got your dak
around your knees and driving. I see that you are giving Craig a hard time about the amount of work he put into his car but every time I see him at
least he gets his hands dirty but your hands Jak always look manicured.:P
