@BengtGriveVisuals its a rover v8 with a welded diff. not a lot of work really. did this outside my flat on the side of road,no workshop.thanks for comments. any advice needed drop me a line. funny thing is i would like another standard one now.got all that nonsence outta my system now.
this was a rollin shell when i saved it from the scrap heap pedrofisherman73...and i cant be that much of a dickhead if i can build a car like this outside my flat with no garage facilities and get it to run 13 second quater mile times....lets see a vid of something you have done that could compare..
Bro this was my dream to have done to my Austin Cambridge A60 I think As we in Trinidad got them my Dad passed it down to me in 1984 when I got my drivers licenses. I was soooooooooo excited. Traveled to America in 86 bought some parts . Inquired about an engine but never went back to live in Trinidad . But the anticipation and idea was so breathtaking. Since then owned a decent bit of V8 cars that passed through my hands but I still think about the Austin and the pointed fins in the back! Thanks for this !

SWEEEETTTNNEESSS!!!!!!!!!! We need more V8 Austins
This is what BMC should've done when they were new.
didn't u cut out the inner wings to give it the extra twist
was it hard to lower it
Nice, this is a conversion I have been thinking about quite a bit. Is there anything specific to watch out for? Or stuff to avoid to make it easier?
