Chunky2772 has passed
Chunky2772 has only visited the forum now and again but just like to say a BIG well done to Mick for passing and getting on the road.
Mick has put together a Haynes Roadster based car on Mx-5 running gear with a Hyabusa engine, Saturn bodywork front with a completely redesigned rear end and it all looks the dogs bo**oxs. I only know its on the road after i was informed that he was witnessed flying around in it. Mick is from Washington, North East again, so have e-mailed him to get his butt down here so we can get some pics up. It's a fantastic build and if you see this Mick....WELL DONE... All the Best...Andrew

Yeah, well done chunky. Hope you're enjoying your machine, and I hope it's as mad as it sounds.
If you do see this, perhaps you could give me some help with electric reverse as I'm building a BEC too. Well done again mate, enjoy.

Car has not passed iva sorry! Im thinking about selling it as a track car its just sitting in my garage collecting dust ive lost count how much its cost me to build i wish i had never started the thing. I realy do think that dvla dont want these cars on the road the iva test it a nightmare to get a bec through it. If anyone is thinking about building a bec 7 don't do it its not worth the hastle it will end up costing you a fortune to build it.

My problem is with emissions! bikes are not emission tested but because ive put a bike engine in my kit car its got to pass 2008 car emissions. How can a bike have no emissions test but because ive put that bike engine in my kit car its now got to pass a car emissions test its still the same bl**dy engine dvla just make the rules up to suite them. Ive had the car to the mot center and its failed the emissions test. I started building this car before they brought these silly rules in so i had no choice but to finish building the car.
