good work, when's the maiden flight planned?

[molen586]

I hope summer of 2010 that the project will be completed, but it really depends about how much time I will put into it. I don't think this summer I can make some big progress, because of my work etcetera

Today I bought 2 Sparco seats.

Tonight I will make some pictures

Very nice project you have going on here Bob!
Looks like you have a good eye for restoration, despite being just 20 years old!
What class are you going to race this in? Historic or something else?
Keep up the good work, and make sure you update us to

Thanks It is my first car project, so it is really a learning object

No I am not gonna race with this car, it will be something like a classic trackday car. When it's finished I will become member of the HARC association. They organize historic car races for people with racing licenses and FIA approved vehicles and trackdays for people without there racing license. Racing for me, is just to expensive for now.

Well that's not a bad idea
A car like this will be fun for trackdays!
Keep us posted!

i think the seat might give it away..
that bodywork is looking pretty good, what colour will it be eventually?

[molen586]

I'm still doubting about the exterior look,,

I am thinking about three options that will look like

So what will you choose?:P:

[Ferrer]

Colours from 3, wheels from 2.

[Matra et Alpine]

hmmm, can't find any pics
BUT .... White, red checker roof, abarth scorpion on boot lid in red and red wide stripe from front wing at headlight level to rear with white abarth writtin in it on front wing.
How I remember them

So close to the bottom one but no grey and the red side flash higher and longer.
Admit I can't remember the front, so red or matt black if not sticking white.

[clutch-monkey]

i would have gone a solid colour but then abarth has little history with me
i do like these two that i have seen in person though; even the yellow haha

[Badams]
