As for now i want to get it running and try it out at pukekohe.the old guy raced it before.the good thing is its a road n track car with half rollcage,lowered,adjustable front lower control arm etc...
To be honest i will need to do some research about track events and see how i go.Just want to get the feel of it and then will decide what to do next.
I got heaps of paper work for the car,what all done to it with receipts etc.the old man is a builder and he has spent lots of time n cash on the car.
Those carbs really looks cool i must say.will post update as i go along.
cheers
mohit.

That looked like a really good buy, I'm sure he could have gotten way more than what he was asking for it. You've done well

Its back on road after 11 years in storage...
As for now its running a stock L28 with twin su carbs just to drive it around and will get the race engine back in after i sort out a few things.
If all goes ok i will be at the taupo track day next year.
