I'm supposed to be getting the car back on Friday morning.
Its been gone for so long, and I've had so many problems that the magic has sort of worn off. I'm seriously considering selling it and buying a 7 clone - probably a super stalker rather than a Caterham or a Locost (unless someone wants to straight swap for an original 63 in decent condition /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
So I have two questions - #1 is has anyone actually driven one of these things and how was it (I drove a Caterham with a 1700 Kent in a few years ago, it was quick but not *that* quick), and #2 although I expect partisan answers on this board, is there a downside to doing it? My car is modified but with all new parts, and I know I'll be lucky to get 1/2 what I have in it so forget that aspect. I don't think the box or the diff affect the value that much. I still have the originals for concours freaks.
I quite fancy doing the build for the new one; it'd be a nice winter project and its straight wrenching, no welding. I can't afford two toys so thats not an option.
Have I lost my mind completely?
