Looks very Sports Purpose! I think it really transforms the car from a street ride to something that would look very much at home at any venue. Great job, Cam.

Thanks guys:D
Been hankering for something a little more extreme for a while now so I'm really happy with the result. The suspension is about to get a work-over before this years Classic Adelaide Rally which should hopefully improve the handling a bit more as well.
Scott the hood is fibreglass. From memory there was around 15kgs weight saving from the original.
Cam,
Looks really nice,
Do you have a better photo of the grill cover? Was this self made or purchased?
Where did you get those rear wheels? Are they Superlites?
Thanks,
Hey Max
I'm not sure if I have a better photo and the car is now on a truck heading south but yes just home made from expanded mesh. I sat mine on top of the lid because of a few paint imperfections. I used rubber grommets as spacers between the lid & grill.
Superlites it is! There are a couple of sources in the US, Pack Racing I think?
Cheers
Cam
Fear not Kenik they are in good hands!!
I have spent the last 10 months driving around on Atlas tires, which were sold through Standard Oil stations about a million years ago. I tried in vain to find a good deal on some ur Fuchs wheels, so I just broke down and found some steelies on Craigslist (4.5" in front and 5.5" in back), had them powdercoated at the local truck tire repair center for $30 a piece, and got some shiny new Vredstein Sprint skins (165 R 15 front and 185 70 R 15 back). New tires are 100% huge grins over the old worn out 14" rubber I had. Here is the before and after:
Here's mine. 1970 2.2E with 'S' pistons and cams.
