[Spleeble]

Been a member for a while and thought I would share my car with you, don't be too mean about it! Hope you can see the pics!

My car before the pinto blew up.

ginetta g27..... very nice

[Spleeble]

A 2L Duratec. Not finished yet though.

Probably the least petrolhead thing to say, but what stunning yellow!

(I'll climb back under my rock)

[Spleeble]

I once said I'd never buy a yellow car but I think it suits it.

I'll put some more pics up when it's done.

[arclight]

it does work for certain shapes and models!

[sniff petrol]

Are you going to fit that titanium skid plate to it Ade?

[Spleeble]

Nope, that can sit on my TV. Told you the engine is in, I just need to get it working now!

Does your TV shoot out sparks now?

Nice looking Ginetta! What do they (roughly) weigh?

Was about 650kgs with the old Pinto I believe.

[Spleeble]

Sniff, sparks only fly out my TV when I spill my beer on it!

Minimatt, it weighs around 750kg I think, I do want to get it weight at some point though. It also depends what engine you got in it as the Pinto is a heavy old lump.

What would it weigh with your female passenger

I think Ade should add a full blog of the costs in his profile...

[Spleeble]

They are not too expensive, there is a V8 one on eBay for £6750. My one is costing a fair bit though as I'm putting a new engine in it. I am also under the impression that only 200ish were produced so they're very exclusive. It’s also cheap to insure.

[sniff petrol]

Are they Toyo Proxo T1-S tyres?

[Spleeble]

I can't remember what tyres it's wearing.
