I was at York rwyb the other week with the TVR club, took my cerbera down which was great fun. It was a very busy day so amount of runs was limited, but as mentioned earlier turn up early & stay late. I might join you guys, if you don't mind having an old amazon amongst your ranks!

That's a pretty cool tale indeed! As a Volvo purist, I've gotta point out that the redblock (especially in 16v guise) is just as capable as the YB, and a lot cheaper...but it's still a very cool car. Where the hell did you find the axle? I do indeed know the rally car you're talking about.

I've sorted out that spam problem you spotted, by the way...

cheers

hi james....thanks for the comments.....from memory..the axle was from an old rally car that was stripped by a motor trader ( rally enthusiasts garage / yorkshire)...advert was in 'motoring news'.....it was a rare find indeed!....cost me £500 used....and thats what i got back for it!.....
on the engine front volvo v cossie....youre probably right.....but you can't convert the young 'uns.......in them days....only a cossie was king!!
