Peepsy's MX250
Hi guys have joined the gang and bought a Tribute. Chris is such a silver tongued devil beware what you end up buying from him. I have bought the Beast as it has been called by my wife . That is the prototype mk2 with the wings that was created for the show. It now resides in sunny Cornwall. As some are aware I have to go for some back surgery very soon, so will sit in my garage for a long time before i get chance to really get at it. Long time to write a shopping list though and a long time to ask you boys lots of questions. Good luck to you builders and thanks to Chris and Ange for delivering it for me .

Our collective fingers are crossed for your back operation, take it easy. |

Hi forum folk, i have returned repaired and sporting a nice new set of stitches on my lower back and half a disc lighter.feel like i have been hit by a bus. On a high note set new record on fluid passed chart of 950ml in 1 bottle 1 pee. Also wifi in hospital not bad managed to by a load of stuff which is arriving daily and really anoying the wife. Bonus !!
|
Lost half a disc ?well that must mean more headroom!
Get well soon! |
Thanks feels like he took half my spine out but fingers still work.love the positivity wasnt particularly tall to start. on a personal note did i hear you have a de vented rear end. taken out of context probably get me red carded. I wouldnt mind seeing a pic in real life thinking of filling mine in. Have I missed your pics somewhere?

Hello Peeps, If you look at the 250GTO thread Chris did some photo shop pics. Iwill start a thread when I get my wheels!
|
You can tell he was a graphic designer, not sure now rear vents no rear vents, front vents no front vents, what you doing with the front ? The big question though is what colour are you going for ?
|
I think no vents,but may add one behind the b-post....but I may change my mind.....colour....lime green, like stirrings, .....but I may change my mind! I have finally ordered banded wheels for the rear.

Hi Roger.
Glad that the Op went OK. You will be out in the garage before you know it. Vents? A very personal thing. I like the character they give the car, but different build styles will suit different configurations of vents/no vents I'm sure. I will do some more Photoshopping when I get a mo..... |
