Description

Currently using 4.875 limited slip differential newly set up. Uprated Peter May Engineering half shafts - double roller bearing rear hubs. All of the above is brand new only covered covered 600miles. I have most of the receipts to prove the parts. The car comes on 13” compomotive alloys and was used at the Classic Ford show 2019 as the unveiling car. It was centre stage Classic on the Ford stand at the Ford Fair 2019 . The best-known hillclimb event in South Africa is held annually in early May during the Knysna Speed Festival, currently known as The Simola Hillclimb and founded in 2009. [13] It is a three-day event, with Classic Car Friday reserved for cars built prior to 1990 and restricted to 65 entries. The King of the Hill Challenge (limited to 84 entries), for standard production and unrestricted cars in various classes, takes place over the weekend. The Saturday is for practice and pre-qualifying, while Sunday features final qualifying, the class finals and then the category shoot outs. The course length is 1.9km (1.2mi) up Simola Hill. It is very fast with the 2018 winning average speed being 192.524km/h (119.629mph). [14] There was no event in 2013 and 2020. 2020 was cancelled due to COVID-19. The eleventh running of the event was held on 3-5 September 2021.

I am open to offers but please do not waste my time with low offers. I’ve built this car from the ground up and I know every nut and bolt but my heart has always been set on a MK2 escort so that’s why I’m selling it. Part exchange is possible for a MK2 Escort.The car has recently undergone re-build from the chassis up. The chassis has been re jigged & powder coated and fitted with a new floor pan and bulkhead. With over 1,000 bhp per tonne the Vision has achieved numerous FTDs and class wins in its current form or alternatively the very rare EXF engine (one of five) could be sold to an MG enthusiast and the car reverted to circuit specification for the MSV Clubmans Sports Prototype Championship.

The driver with the greatest number of "Race to the Sky" outright wins (8) is Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima, driving his custom built Suzuki Escudo hillclimb special vehicle. The car had a period in storage and by the 1970s it had fallen into a rather tired state, but fortunately it came into the hands of Peter Seabrook-Harris who over time restored it to its current lovely condition. The Dellow starts on the button and on the road it is very lively and handles well. It is very sound with a sweet engine, an easy to use Ford three-speed gearbox, taut suspension, good steering and strong brakes. It is great fun to drive and ready for classic trials. Fitted with a superb Cosworth DFR that had a complete rebuild by Tony Ireland only six hillclimbs ago. Aero screen that can be fitted once the windscreen is removed (2 nuts and bolts and 2 set screws and it is off. A matter of a few minutes.This stunning example is the last Vin Malkie continuation B19 produced, using all new parts other than a set of original bodywork. Only used for a limited number of classic hillclimbs since built, with several successes including an FTD at Shelsley Walsh.

Very reluctantly due to health issues, I am having to offer for sale my original and unique ALDON Sports Racing Car. New while in UK: Plugs, Weber air filters, rear brake shoes, clutch slave, rear hub seals, Aeroquip front and rear brake lines. This car was the 2014 Champion of Mondello and, following a complete rebuild, has competed in the HSA Speed Championahip for the last two seasons. Peter Hubbard's unique Shelsley Special, Maximus,features a Prosport 3000 chassis (number 0001) with a Darrian GTr carbon fibre body moulded on and fitted with a V8 Evinrude two stroke engine (325hp) and 380 lb/ft torque connected to a CVT transmission.Complete with a current V5, a reproduction instruction book, a sump guard and the original airbox, diff and Nardi steering wheel.

Steve Owen who built it (chassis number 111) also maintained it for me, hence the new carbon front wing which is not as per originally fitted but a massive improvement- can take hollow at Gurston absolutely flat out @ 110 ish. The 100% Belgian-designed racecar is powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder TFSI with 380 horsepower and has a sequential 6-speed paddle-shift Quaife gearbox. The carbon fibre chassis allows the car to only weigh 925kg. It is managed by a Bosch Motorsport calculator and has a MoTeC instrument cluster and PDM for full telemetry.The oldest Lola T492 on the UK Lola Register is now for sale after a full engine and chassis rebuild by Sports 2000 specialist Andy Cattani.
