Idea is........

Le Mans rear wings with bespoke short sill extensions finishing at the backs for the front doors, no need for the full sills from a Le Mans.

Le Mans rear bumper.

One piece A610 front and bonnet to suit. Front will be bolted on.

Full roll cage, multi point contact. Above dash brace bar.

Engine//////// yep, it'll have one.

Gearbox//////// yep, see above!

I always commend your good work Mr Walsh and you do have the passion. Give me a shout if you need any bits :lol:

P.S - Without the breakers we can't keep the good uns on the road, a fact nowadays as new parts dry up guys!
