I need to get some 7" ERCO's which is proving a little hard to track down.... Prefer 205PCD, but I'm open to other options.
A while back someone posted a link to a motorsport trading site... Can't for the life of me remember where is was.... Anyone got any leads?

I knew you'd like it Barry... First job will be to make the POS a streeter again, then it's back into this one... If nothing else, it'll be nice to
make some room in the shed!

Yup.... Might even go with a little ol'skool striping and graphics....
Or maybe just to a glory car based on that Essex Bro's beast! 
Or maybe.... Tony Thornton's old car...

Fortunately I'm a shiny paint dreamer on a primer paint budget... Paint don't make it fast, and most of my investment is in the chassis and
driveline... All pretty much paid for too I might add, only the engine updates are to compete.... So the body will be solid and cheap.... It's a race
car after all.

Just scored these out of SoCal.
Need some suitable bubble fronts to match now... And most likely be selling my current ERCO's too.

I picked up a new turbo the other day....
http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/prod18.htm
The CroMo tube for the new cage has been lined up too... The guy who's doing some bar work on the Baja has done me a very good deal in the tube....
Much cheaper than GoGear (local motorsport supplier) too.
And a pair of used 26x8.5 Slicks from a guy in Bunno.... Cheers to Morgan for putting me on to those!
The chassis mockup will begin again as soon as the 'customer car' goes out the door....
Crankcase, pistons, flanged cranks, SCAT rods and extra long 94mm cylinders are off to Dave Butler real soon too....
It's good to be moving forward.... But of course all of this is going into a new car, and the POS is going back on the road without all the turbo
stuff... But it will be nice to have a quick street bug again... Its been way too long....
Need to come up with a new title for this thread.... Suggestions?
