I have been working feverishly on this for the last two months or so. I plan to post a picture a day, untill it is done ( It needs to be done by this Sunday, August 9th)
I really want to THANK YOU, the forum members. Your discussions, builds and topics have been an inspiration to me as I faced this 7's rebuild.
In a few weeks I will share the whole story. For now, just know this car last ran in September 1994. [img][IMG]http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/ww24 ... 105446.jpg[/img][/img]

Nice.

More details on the rack conversion please. I'm sure others here are interested too.

I prefer these two Pictures Seems a lot of work to restore the car.

I don't have a lot of info on this. It was included with a shell I bought as he did not want it. The shell was used as an auto slalom car ( parking lot and orange cones - not sure what you call it. It's painted blue. Was installed by a friend. Seems to quicken the steering. If all goes to plan I will have a full report for you in a week.

it has been and is. I think i am crazy. I have been involved with this car since the 1980 's. I was the first person to co-drive in it and it was the last 2 wheel drive car to win the Canadian Rally Championship. After rolling it in 1994 it has been stored inside and I have done a few minor things to it. Not sure what changed but I have been hard at it for the last while.

Note the car is an SA and an early one. It still has the old slider front calipers. I know because I re-built them yesterday

Good taste in rear spoilers.....

This is first attempt re a video. Hope it works.

Title - It Lives!
for the first time in 21 YEARS - fritter moves under its own power.

Works for me by copying and pasting url into a new tab.

I think I saw this on Facebook .. I bet that felt good!

Good job!!

Fritter just passed MOT inspection and is now licensed, plated and insured. 250 km's of testing at the local track completed.
Gravel testing in 10 Days, and rally in 16 days.
Sorry, pics have to wait, I have to go to work.

I hope this works. Link to pics from Sunday Oct 18th gravel test / rally sprint in Middleton, Nova Scotia, Canada. Car named fritter, is a 1979 SA Street ported gen 2. She did a stellar job.
