Very cheap, if well set up I would think it will be putting out around 110/120bhp on bike carbs.

just done a bit of a search and it looks like it was owned by mediabloke on here a while ago.....
Could the 1.6 be swapped with a redtop easily I wonder ??
Looks a lovely tidy car.....

Bet it goes well with that engine in it to be honest. Looks like a lovely build and very keenly priced as well.
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

if you want one with a red top then buy one with a red top fitted, yes it will cost more to buy but you will get what you want

If you have the money snap his hand off!!, it is very well built and a really nice car, the engine was 130 bhp without the bike carb conversion, Steve
at bogg brothers converted it for the guy who bought it off me. he told me recently it went like a rocket with the bike car conversion, one of the
best results they had seen.
I sold it 5 years ago to a guy in Liverpool, I was the second owner and bought it off the guy who built it, the dashboard was one of four only ever
made.
Wish i had the cash at the moment, it would be in my garage now!

Well locosters I am now the happy owner of Sonic's old Mk Indy
I'll have to say its a really tidy car, and goes really well.....I spoke to Bogg Bros today who reckoned it would be putting out about
140-150bhp after they fitted the bike carbs etc
Got to go collect it tomorrow night, can't wait

Your a lucky man, look after it and have fun.
If you need any info I think I still have the number of the chap who built it.

Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well I picked up the MK tonight after a long day at work, and only just got back in now.....but well worth it
The car performed faultlessly on the way back from Hull and didn't miss a beat (110 mile trip), the only thing my face is now numb !!
It is a v.quick car, and seems well screwed together....just need some time now to give it a good clean/detailing !!
I will be along to ask lots of questions again soon..
Thanks for all the kind comments guys, and sonic yes I may get the buildersguys number off you if thats OK.
