Re: Mid Engine SVX concept.

Hi All,
Have been busy on another thread,
what may interest you all is that I just brought 2 of these, one may go in the mid engine just undecided.
Going to be a hoot for sure. They cost me a small fortune, had to sell the wife and kids but hell its worth it.
Tony

Okay, Tony, now it looks like I'm going to have to buy that plane ticket to Australia!

Re: Mid Engine SVX concept.

Bill there is always a bed here for you at my house.

Yes I did buy 2 engines plus all the race F1 teams spare parts. A guy in Sweden brought them from the original team. Him and I have been negotiation for about 3 years, actually started about the time I put up the first post on this project. He wants to move them and so he dropped his price, he also had a big emotional attachment to the engines so he went out of his way to make sure that I got them. Being that I am a Subaru lover, it all made sense.

Over the last couple of years I have got a bunch more SVX's, have 4 of 1995, 4 of 1992 and 1 of 1993. Only 2 will be parted. 5 have rego and are used. I also have acquired about 18 extra EG33 engines for development work that I am doing as regards hi compression and compression ignition. Don't want to get bored.

My plan is to sort out the complexities of the build on this chassis I have post about. When that is all sorted and I know what I am doing I will cut up a 1995 that is in mint condition to complete the job.

Tony
