Trying to build a dream STRATOS INSPIRED

Newbie posting. Still have a lot of suspension issues to work out but the body and structure pretty sound. Looking forward to learn some stuff here. Galant V6 (6A12) grafted onto a spaceframe. Donor similar to the Galant in the picture. Acrylic for glass all around.

Posting from the Philippines!



Cheers everyone!

Vindicator Sprint MK1

Just bought a vindicator sprint mk1 with 2l pinto engine. Very happy with new purchase and just had a good play in the recent dry condition.
Can't decide wind deflector or windscreen.
Anyone know where i can get a windscreen, roof and doors?
Is it possible to soften front suspension. believe cortina front end.
Is it feesable to build a roll cage, that a roof will go over.

How do i start my own threads on this site.

Sold it this year but here is (was) my Mk 2 Sumo. Always thought it was the best Mk 2 around (I never saw better) :eusa_snooty: Someone prove me wrong!! :eusa_pray:



:cry: very sad to see it go. Started building it in 1991, finished and registered in 1995 and sold 2003. Loved it but it had to go in the end.

Tribute 250 SWB Convertible

I took delviery of my kit on 1st Aug 2015 and completed it around 1 year later, although had some hiccups along the way and probably could have done it in 6 months (evenings and weekends). Only used basic tools, advice on forum and ingeniutiy, got 3rd party to prep bodywork and paint, however did everything else.

Can anyone help me identify this?

I bought this car a few years ago....says on the V5 that it is a Marlborough but I have no history. It is running Leyland gear (1800cc 4-pot)

All thoughts welcome
