PH worlds collide!

[DanielSan]

After seeing this thread on Driftworks last night, http://www.driftworks.com/forum/drift-car-projects... I can only wonder what the hell is going through this guys mind!?

[carreauchompeur]

I like it

[deltashad]

Me too... looks better than an MX5 and cheaper to run than a Trevor.

[73mark]

WTF?

[Northernchimp]

Is nothing sacred?

[AlexRS2782]

Oh dear

[ThatsWhatShe]

Not the ugliest thing an MX5 has been turned in to...

[backwoodsman]

I'd drive it, that project has real potential.

[CrutyRammers]

Can't see the thread, but it looks like an actual petrol head is getting off his arse, getting his hands dirty and doing a project car?
Maybe he should just Evo and learn the specs of the latest Ferrari instead.

[lewisf182]

Quite like that, looks like it will be a quality finish at the end. I hope he doesn't try to pass it off as a TVR though. The wheels are a bit chav too tbh.

[TheJimi]

There's a lot of potential there.

Could end up looking pretty cool.

Driveway spannering tends to be frowned upon on PH unless you're working on a kit car, a production car older than 40 years or a Lotus Elise.

At least he'll never drive pass another one going in the opposite direction.
A shame to lose the pop up lamps, but at least that may have saved some weight and complication.

I hope it gets finished. I struggle with normal low level spannering let alone a bespoke project like that.

that wheel arch gap rivals a modern Ferrari. Not bad - has potential. The key will be in the details.

[98elise]

It doesn't bother me as long as it doesn't have TVR badges on it.

[Butter Face]

There's a comma on the end of your link which screws it up!






Finished project could be very interesting!!

[J4CKO]

I like the idea and it's half there, as long as it sits right and he sorts the rear wheel not being central in the arch then it could well look great, I think a bit if subtlety would work better than a total replica, Tvr cues rather than a verbatim copy, and has been said, no badges that say Tvr.

[vrooom]

whatever you do, please replace the engine. horrible mx5 engine.

[xRIEx]

Good on him, it already looks better than the Peugeot F430.
