And finally completion...
Special thanks to all who helped during this project and special thanks to Al Canuck!

Oh yeah and future plans.. Not really sure what it holds in store. Have to finish up the interior bits and do some final tweaking. Some bigger rims and tires and I'm going to try autocrossing it...
And of course use it as my daily when I get  back..

As long as you fix what you break Marcel. And if you bust the 1600cc I'd more then happily accept anything from a 2110-2232 as a replacement..

I am not bold and i am not dumb, But i will take you up on that as no one has ever blown anything i have built.    When do we get the car?     Marcel
P.S.  I do have a 2110 sitting here in case your worried.

I'm a little disappointed Kirin. If you're going to post pictures of your car you HAVE to post the \"money shot\".

Lol Bill
I always forget about that stage of my cars evolution. When there were days of functioning 4th gear.. An interior I cared about and more then 40hp...
And for Silas as soon as I can find the specs to build up a 2232 I will get back to you :rolleyes:
