Build 1 started August 2010 1600cvh with type9 box got as far as fitting engine and box before being cut in half after 3 months due to taking up too much space. No progress due to total lack of funds gearbox,diff and shafts sold to help pay workshop rent, front and rear chassis sections in storage to use as templates for body work.
Build 2 started July 2012 2ltr Impreza engine, gearbox locked to make RWD chassis made 100mm wider, 40% of chassis material recovered to supply bits for a flatpack. Engine and gearbox weighed in for scrap 18 months later.
