Guys - just be aware that the early cars were designed for 16" wheels and the rear uprights are different (you'd need to change them if you wanted to fit the 18" wheels). The roll cages were updated to include additional door bars and an intrusion panel. Finally the original exhaust system was changed to the half door set up as it was difficult to make them comply with noise regs.
Rare to see cars in original Rover V8 spec - nice to see it

Maybe its just me, but if I was to buy another Tuscan it would have to have an AJP.
Nice opportunity for someone to run an SC-Power blower setup...Andy? 

HHmmmm Rover 4.5 with a SC, would that make it a class A car?
How would it compare against the 4.5 racing AJP?

If you dont put the different uprights on you have to lower on the spring platforms. Tha angle of the skocks is rubbish when they are at the right height, if you collapse the shocks to lower the car you get a falling rate shocker and spring which is crap.teamHOLDENracing said:
