Light Addict's Fluxing Central - Featuring The Original Flux Journal

Some great kits out there now....Ferrari for Mk2 Toyota MR2, Ferrari for Peugoets, Lamborghini for Toyota Mk1 MR2, and so on. Done WELL they fetch really serious dosh :)
 
Mate if I see a Ferrari 355 I always now assume it's an mr2 lol
A mate of mine well I say a mate not a good pal just a lad I no bought one 7 year back 12k . It was amazing until he crashed it st a roundabout on the "mad mile"
The 406 coupes with the Lamborghini kit and newer ferari kit look awsome
But I'd have an AC cobra replica any day with a v8/v10 or 12 over a mr2 2.0T ferari rep
 
Yep or you got it my friend them or jag engines. Honesty I so have to start a business of some sort up soon. The other Idea would be to do a grow shop and a seed bank/head shop. Get 2same corner properties for rent. Then you have 2 separate addresses at same site. Then you get rnd the law of not being able to supply seeds and grow gear on one premises. As they would be separate although right on top of each other.

Oz there is a mint and I mean mint orange mk1 escort round my way
It's to die for
LA guess what's happened in my grow tonight? Yes u guessed it my timer popped. Lights ment to go out first time at 8. I came up to bed at 11 lights on fans spinning so iv had to turn it off manually and will go back on in the morning before buying a heavy duty time from the hydro shop before work.
Aww LA AC cobras are probably the prettiest sports car ever made! There's a one that lives in Tyne mouth. Me and my dad used to drewl over it every week wen we visited that neck of the woods. We looked at kits for them before. I think the rover v8 engine is the voice for a lot of them if memory serves me right

In my neck of the woods it's usually a Ford 427 cu. in. V8. 7.5 litres roughly. Always seriously warmed up. Alex, that Rover V8 was in a turbo Oldsmobile Jetfire in the mid sixties. Had a glass bottle of "Turbo Fluid" under the hood that injected basically water into the turbo. People forgot to fill them up and the Turbo would seize up. Model didn't last too long.
 
That's a cool idea but I bet the law would be on ur back every spare minute.
They hate loop holes lol
I watched a documentary 5 years ago now on how ppl grow mj underground and it looked at a grow shop. It shown police raids etc etc and was ment to scare ppl away from it........ Worked the oposite for me lol within a month I was growing lol

Old Cars lol. I wanted an old Dubb or ford pop when I was a Kid, to convert into a mean machine. My dad knew this and for my 17th he gave me!!!!???? A 1956 split screen morris minor to fix up.(it was a wreck lol) I was mortal upset at the time, as wasn't really gonna be able to rev up a moggy. He he it actually had semifor indicators that popped out the side.
Ended up spending a year and a half restoring her. Then made a tidy sum. Ive even thought of starting a little side business building high detail replica AC Cobra's, as you can get the kits for peanuts really then you just have to source engine gear box etc. Anyway finished to a high standard these AC replica cars fetch like 25-35 grand. Just another thing I want to do lol.

I'm in Canada Alex and the sixties muscle cars are my thing. 7.7 litres with 600 ib. /ft pinning to the seat when you mash it. Love it. Seriously, a lot of those big engines were fairly well designed for their time (some, not all) and with a little bit of work could be made to rev. Very high and produce massive horsepower. The 425 engine in my Olds is 435 horsepower for mild street performance and it will rev to 6500 rpm. I built it myself as well. It has over 550 lb./ft. Of torque.
Love Brit. Cars too. I had a 1969 Cortina GT with cross flow heads designed by Colin Chapman. That thing was really quick and I won a trophy at the local drag strip beating several Amercan V8s to do so.

Dresney, My wife drives a Volvo but the 69 Olds is the only car I have. I can't afford anything else and I can't force myself to sell it, even tho it gets rotten gas mileage and I can only drive it on nice days. Bought it in Indianapolis when I lived there.
 
Hey la bugs never tickled my fancy but campers do.. We've got all the gear to convert a Mercedes vito into a little camper. Had my eye open for months for a suitable but affordable clean vito for the conversion.

Dres 7.0 booshhhhh they can power a bus lol
 
My last "proper car" was a Monaro 5.7ltr V8. Loved it. I'd had 2 jag XK8 convertibles prior to that. Long story short....I'd split with my ex and we sold our house and 4.5acres of land. I was going back to OZ for a 6 week break and just before I was due to go Top Gear featured the new Monaro. I went o the local dealership and got one on a weeks test drive. It had 32 miles on the clock, I loved it so paid the guy £27,000 on my debit card and gave him my jag too. I lost out really but, in those days money WASN'T an issue. I sold it last year for £7,750 after 6 years of GREAT fun :) Now I drive a 4x4 :( lol
