s2 Cab

[gavs20v]

apparently kims 430bhp one is quite a handful but ive not had a chance to give mine some beans yet so cant really comment. The cab as standard has a lot of extra stranghening straight from the factory. So much so iirc it actually weighs more than an s2 coupe. I had a cutaway drawing of a cab which highlighted all the areas which were double skinned etc ill try and dig it out. In the limted mileage ive done in it it felt very sold. In fact it felt just like driving an s2 coupe with the hard top on, but like i say ive not had a chance to drive it enthusiastically yet.
If i get a chance ill find the link to to vortex thread

Is that my car I see in the background??????? Looks like you are having fun with that one, did you finally get a alternator? I might have to come look at your engine to see how mine is going to fit, and also see where everything goes. Does look good clean. Good find mate.

Was it a lot of work fitting the Porsche seats?

I know it needn't be said, but this is one very cool car!! Porsche seats/interior looks sharp!

To be honest no. The porker seats have a perfectly flat base to work with so gives you a blank canvas to work with. I chopped up a pair of 80 front seats and welded them to the porsche subframes so i didnt have to butcher anything on the car. Mine are ok but they can be vastly improved upon which is something ill look at over the winter.

Thanks for all the comments. Been out in it a fair bit now the interiors back in and its half decent weather and its absolutely brilliant fun. Really outs a smile on my face
