[fiatdaft]

just like that narrowed metro.

Capri for that London.

[RedSparrow]

You mean its going to be fragged and made into paperclips, right?

what about the motor Norm?

 

whats it getting?

[autofive]

theres only one volkswaffe (team)

 

[HillmanImp]

That has got to be a pisstake.

I haven't decided 100% on the engine. The easy choice to replace the original Komet Walter HWK 109-509A-2 liquid fuel motor ( ) would be a Chevy 350. I may do that, as I happen to have a nice one with 4 twin down-draft Webers. And the sprint cars are usually set up for Chevs.

im green with envy - will you pilot it yourself?

 

 

p.s. - not everyone likes it

Put some effort in,.. or don't bother. /quote

Just keep the Komet engine, whilst being careful not to get any on your skin (since it's capable of fusing flesh to metal)

[ashmicro]

Sorry dude, that's fucked.

[Pete-M]

I rather like the wheels.

That has got to be a pisstake.

It had me fooled for a few mintues until i saw this clip which is also at the end of that first video.

Norm, you need N-stoff...can't beat it for a good hypergolic effusion

I think, compared to the metro, the capri looks better due to it's extra length. I'd be tempted to fit a single front wheel where the engine should be, and a wide arch kit covering a narrowed axle at the back, stick the largest v8 you can find behind the driver and go play.

 

btw, doesnt "volkswaffe" mean people's weapon?

[scaryoldcortina]

Ignore clarkson based propganda, reliant 3 wheelers actually handle frighteningly well.

 

Other possibility, single (but huge) back wheel and two rocket boosters mounted.USS enterprise style? Please?

[whitevanman]

Best thing I've seen done to a Capri since I scrapped one........

 

how about using a bike engine driving the front wheel and steering at the same time ?

[Station]

That looks quite nice.
