Hello All,

thanks,

Ben

Your Beat has the engine from a rolling shell I bought last year.

Ok, thanks Ian - so who bought the engine from you? is a he still a member?

Btw are you still selling that steering wheel?

hey ben
i might be wrong... but if my memory serves me right...
the car belonged to a fella on here called tinytim who did the interior (if its the same one with the green interior?), then it was owned by a chap called esson until recently.
my friend kenzo from Hyeline performance owned the lower-milage donor car (a silver beat that mylee had for parts) and did the engine swap.
if you do a search back through here for those 2 users you should be able to find plenty of info/history on it!
i'm pretty sure its the same car.
HTH!

ps - forgot to say, it looks like a very nice example!!

Thanks Tado - what a good idea, I'll have a look back at some of the posts - cheers, Ben

I remember Tinytim. When i was looking for my Beat, his/yours was up for sale. I just didn't have the cash for it.

Thanks Marge - just out of interest do you remeber how much it was going for?

Yeah that car is a version Z, Tim was putting a 700cc kit into it but had crazy problems with it. In the end I think he just rebuild the engine to standard. It originally had a mugen hard top too.

The exhaust was made in Ireland by power flow.
