Project 1
The A60 truck of mine( Kev Preston) is not a new project but more a total revamp. You will be aware if you have read the history of this truck that it had the original chassis and floor under the cab. I have been thinking about some changes for some time and with the decision to go for a twin turbo setup decided the truck would benefit from a full chassis through out. I reused the rear half of the chassis as this is ok and made a new one from this forward. The new rails are about 4ins higher than before to enable the 3 1/2in exhaust and 3in pipe to the new rear mounted water to air intercooler to all tuck under the floor. Well thats the idea anyway. Will post more info and pics as I progress.

Project 2
This is the new Fiat 126 being constructed for Lucy Skinner by her dad Chris. It was bought by Ben but after a few changes of plan Ben bought Lucys car and this car is to be built for Luce.It was a nice running little car originally and Chris took the car to Santa Pod to see what a bog standard Fiat 126 is capable of. 23 seconds is the answer. After 2 runs it was decided to use the car for runs to the toilet. It has now been stripped down to just the body shell. The drive train has been carefully deliberated over and Volkswagen Beetle engine and box was once a possibility. Chris has now decided on Renault 5 turbo but this may all change before the completion. Again will post info and pics as they come avaiable.

Project 3
The guys at Taz Racing are never content to build a car and then rest on their laurels. We are all striving to improve our rides or if thats not possible then build something better. This is the case with the third project. Lee Denham built his first race Capri in literally a few months and now hes had a couple of good years racing has decided to build a better car. With that in mind he bought a really nice Mk2 Capri that some guy had loving restored. He has now stripped that car and plans are for a full chassis and cage, tubbed rear end and then power this with a twin turbo S.B.C. Again this has only just started and at the rate Lee works expect to see it sometime around 2012.
