[surrey_100e]

Hi People,
Thought id post up on here some photos of my 1960 ford 100e with a difference. Its powered by the Volvo engine out of a focus st/rs. Ive converted it to rear wheel drive using a 960 bell housing a custom adaptor plate and a cosworth t5 gearbox. Its got a dry sump system that is nearly finished, ive also nearly finished making the 3" exhaust system. I will be running it on vipec v88 management and will be having a custom loom made. Its still a while off being finished but here are the photos that bring it near up to date

Nope not really drag racing, just a bit of fun for the road, when i first built it i was running a 1700 crossflow but then went in search for more power and came up with this,

thanks for the comments guys.
Just the last photo that brings it up to date, got my 850r clutch kit through during the week, i only needed the pressure plate so the friction plate will be up for sale as you cant get them separately.
Should have everything fitted up at the weekend, ordered new flywheel bolts today. http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m510/surrey_100e/IMG_1411.jpg

You sir have some fine skills. A clean looking sleeper which should fly.

Wasn't suprised to see it's a cover car. Lovely build, I'll be following this thread.

Nige

[p fandango]

first time i've seen the pictures for this thread (viewing on my phone last week) & the quality of everything is very impressive sir. My bro used to have a 300e company van with a 2.0 Pinto & i couldn't fit in the thing becuase of the lack of leg room, & you've moved the bulkhead back :hail: lol

Aren't the current guidelines on alterations to standard chassis now not deemed possible/allowed? I know of cars running different engines recently built looking standard from the outside which are not deemed appropriate for an MOT due to current guidelines. It may be because of Spaceframe tubing in section under stadard panels but I would check just to make sure as you have put a lot of work in which looks amazing by the way. The downpipe looks like the one I made with the flange uncut in shape and left round lol.

In that situation, an SVA, or whatever it'e now called, would make the car legal wouldn't it?

Im not sure to be honest.

Fantastic !! Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

When i did my last engine swap i didnt have any issues so should be okay but yes i have heard of some people getting the cars inspected by garages or having the sva test, dont think ive got anything to worry about though

Lol, Mate was on about that at work the other day. He said exactly the same about his :D
Reminds me of my 70' VW Camper. The screen washers ran off the spare wheel on the front. Little pipe from the tyre valve, Through the front and pressurised the water bottle when you press the peddle. :D
