Even though I'd regard myself a purist, this project deserves extreme respect, unbridled lunacy! bow

I think I found the main thread, loads more info:

http://octane.ie/forum/showthread.php?t=32946&...

my guess is someone ran out of money and/or interest.

Last update was may, i hope it's still a go-er.

it's sad to see projects like this fade away. Another one was a chap on passionford was building a 7 style kit car with a viper V10 in it. BUt it was 'credit crunched'.

David.

He's been doing a house up, so think it's been on the back burner for a bit.

Taken from the Octane thread:

"Well between being seriously ill,buying and then renovating and extending a large family house,then moving from my old house into my new house and also having a family,alot of my time has been taken up.

Its called living and having a life.


And to pour cold water on the rumour that I had sold the project on or went bust,well I havent.

I still have it and I still own it,and Im still working on it (when I can find the time to and am well enough to see it or even try to work on it).Miost of the Motec stuff is here,just waiting on some extra little Motec Goodies to arrive,and I may ask a good friend of mine to take over the heavy duty manual and skilled building work on the car now,so it can start to take more shape now,as Im still recovering my health at the moment and still alot of visits to doctors and hospital."
