The beast is alive

Hi guys, haven't been on here for a while -well couple of years actually. Some may have seen the Vert in the members rides. Well after a 10 year slog the car finally runs. I actually lost intrest in it and it sat for a few years after which i got made an offer to sell which i couldn't refuse. The car runs a Haltech injected 2.7 L type4, had the opportunity last weekend to help the new owner do the 1st service / valve adj after which I got to drive it for the fist time, awesome moment and to be honest i would be lying if i said there were no regrets about selling it. The power this thing has is awesome, it just pulls from 1500 rpm. Just as well that the new owner and I are good friends, so I will be getting to use the beast once time permits. I'll try to post some pics very soon, ony have video footage at the moment.

The dash is custom made, I actually used an old LHD dash and cut it up changing it to RHD and modified from there.
