Hi guys

I picked the car up yesterday having had the following done:

New rear bodywork and wing.

Front nose fitted (proerly!)

4 wheel alignment / geometry . corner weights etc.

There are some pictures on my web site at:

Navigate to the bodywork page.

I've also had a new header tank made - very nice! Go to the cooling system page.

Regards

Wyn

Not ready at all!

I'm absolutely petrified (read sh*tting myself) but can't wait to drive it!!! :-)

Hope to see and hear it soon

MVS ? Martins Volvo Service ?

Hi Jools - I can't believe it either! Soon hopefuly.

Volvorsport - dead right - do you know Martin?


Volvorsport - 19/3/07 at 08:47 PM

yeah , he used to work for darrian - after i left - hes building a(or was) 16v turbo 740 , and a few other projects .


lsdweb - 19/3/07 at 09:03 PM

Yeah - he was with Duffee for some time I think.

He's running his own business now - loads of carbon stuff rolling out of there but he and the 'boys' can pretty much turn their hands to anything!


There are a couple of Volvos in there - one is a mid engine conversion - possibly a 340?


Volvorsport - 19/3/07 at 09:13 PM

interesting - he was running his own business before i started at tims


lsdweb - 20/3/07 at 06:49 AM

Was that the Volvo business?


TimC - 20/3/07 at 09:08 AM

See you in Llandow mate...


Volvorsport - 20/3/07 at 10:25 AM

yeah that was - is he still tinkering - or is it just race cars now ?


lsdweb - 21/3/07 at 09:59 PM

Tim - will you be competing at Llandow then .... :-)

Volvosport - Martin is doing lots of different things - loads of carbon fibre for Radicals, westies, Subarus etc. Stacks of seats. He's also doing some wird stuff like my conversion.

There's always something interesting in there!!
