Striker rebuild

Postby Taff Striker » Sun Oct 07, 2012 7:17 pm

After more than 2 years I thought it was about time I put a few photos up of progress with my rebuild/modification. Originally fited with a x flow I've now got a Corsa 1600 motor plumbed, wired and piped in. I'll let the pictures do the talking :D

As I bought it

Image

Stripping down

Image

New engine mounts

Image

Reworked pedal box

Image

Taller cage to clear helmet and full front

Image

Back from blasting and powder coating

Image

Good progress being made

Image

Image

Current situation

Managed to buy the later nose and bonnet with bulge locally but they were in yellow so they are being painted BRG this week.

Hopefully it'll be finished by Christmas then it'll be a question of getting it set up in readiness for sprints and hillclimbs next year :D
