Not rallied since the major rebuild commenced, AFAIK. Had previously been alloy-caged and ugly.

Interesting... and completely wrong... They were Webers, and I'm pretty sure they were 48s.

Ok one question , how do you drive it? in all the photos I can see the steering wheel boss is further back in the car than the gearstick, so would that mean that once strapped in with your arms at a comfortable/correct length to operate the wheel you would need to reach forward to select a gear

Are those tower to front rail tubes legal?
As they're not actually part of the cage (or at least not a definite continuation of it) they may be.
Just curious and interested in opinions.

Ric, I wondered that. I also wondered how you'd see out of the thing, given the the crew sits so low and so far back. Over the slightest hint of a crest, you'd be looking a bonnet and sky and nothing else...
Art, Yes they are 100% legal. They are legal because they're NOT part of the cage. Instead, they're the specifically allowed re-enforcing bars between suspension mounting points (strut top and castor rod mount in this case).
