I keep having a look on ebay but not alot seems to end up on there. Anybody know of any around at the moment. Just broke my Ka Turbo so got some nice bits I just cant bear to part with so will go nicely on a Indy I think.

have you been scanning the classifieds of the kit car mags - usually a few part builts cars in there


SyKaTurbo - 30/7/07 at 01:59 PM

Yeah i saw that. Looking for one with some bits really.

Kit car mags. Good start. Will go for a browse at my local WHSmith lol

What bits would you plan to use from the Ka?


SyKaTurbo - 30/7/07 at 02:24 PM

Well, as much as poss. Alot of the bits are too good to sell at a loss due to a rusty shell so might as well use what i can and sell/swap the rest for bits i can use.

I've seen a couple of RST engined Westfields in classifieds. One in particular was unfinished, This was some time ago though.

Why the pink block?

What size steering wheel is it? Im tempted to buy that off you.

i no its not a locost, but the revised Jester is now based on a Ka doner


SyKaTurbo - 30/7/07 at 02:56 PM

The pink was just something different really. Bit unusual to open a Ka bonnet and find a bright pink RS engine in there.

I'm keeping all the bits for time being, too good to sell on really.

just had a look at the jester. i'd feel like noddy driving that. Although RS powered, Porsche braked Noddy car could be fun lol

looks a bit like a convertable ka but lighter! recon traction may be a bit of a problem though.

What about a Mojo or whatever they are called? I like them!

I wondered who was actually buying the hot pink engine paint that Car Builder Solutions have been trying to sell of for the last year or so
