I am planning on putting a 12V Cologne in mine. I have he engine on my driveway. And the gearbox in my m8's garage ( 350 miles away )

I esrtimate an approximate build including IVA of arround £3.5K

part of the fun is hunting down bragins, and working out the most effective way to do something without spending lots of money. But then also having some funds to buy parts that your not keen on making..

Hopefully I should have a chassis in the next couplpe of weeks..

TT

great news to hear i will be able to fit in it once its done. just got to get the Rover fixed first, and iv just had a Morgan dropped off with a bent bottom arm. Iv not even started yet and I'm trying to squeeze in time. any ideas as to how the roadster handle with the v6 in the front, and most importantly how nippy is it :-)

welcome to the forum first

sounds like you have a good background for the build and a good size lump to put in the front.

as for cost im not going to disclose how much mine has cost il let you all guess at stonligh provided i get it there plus i havnt added it up fully yet, but i can say its quite a lavish build

all the best of luck to you, you are obviously as mad as the rest of us or you would not have even contemplated such an undertaking.
