Hi Ross,

You can add mine which at the moment has no colour (will probably end up dark blue).

Alfa Romeo 3ltr 12valve V6 engine and gearbox
Alfa Romeo 164 fully adjustable steering column and switchgear
284 x 22mm vented front discs and 4 pot calipers
284 x 22mm vented rear discs and MR2 rear handbrake calipers (not yet fitted)
bespoke pedal box with adjustable f/r bias
cable gear-change mechanism with a bespoke machined aluminium gate (a la Lamborghini)
battery moved to front wheel well for better weight distribution
electric door and boot release, electric mirrors (mazda MX5), integrated Pioneer Avic satnav, electromagnetic reversing sensor

The car is currently residing in my garage with all suspension, engine and electrics finished - just got to get round to upgrading the rear brakes and then acquiring and fitting the glass and finishing the bodywork.

I've been working on this (on and off) for nearly 14 years and it has followed me round from place to place, I just need about 6 months off work and then I reckon it would be finished!

Bought from a guy named Duncan Stevens all those years ago, don't know if he gets on here but I'm sure someone on here remembers him.

Regards
Jon
