Geoff,
Since posting my message I have in fact bought one. Like yours, had been stored for 10 odd years and was less engine and gearbox however I am now in process of fitting a Duratec with SBD throttle bodies and MT75 5 speeder. Diff is 3.92 Should be good for aroung 200+ bhp
I still have the old Kit car mags with the article in it from 1986/7 and have always wanted to own one as I can remember going down to the factory and seeing the workmanship that went into it. They really are a work of art when you compare them to some of the rubbish you can buy today.
I am doing a ground up restoration, chassis and panneling are now Racing Blue, vented discs up front with std Type 16's
I am doing away with windscreen, heater etc as will be mainly using it for some track days.
Great to hear of other cars being used. Not sure if I will be going to Newark but would like to hook up sometime and talk nuts and bolts!
Have you any pics you can attach of your Spyder
Do you know of anyone else with one?? Seems we are a pretty elite and priveliged band..
Keep in touch
