Hi mate welcome along nice cars there

welcome to the CTOC mate, very nice cars, did the cav come from Blyth, if so i think it used to belong to Stomps, from the old site.

Thanks for the welcome guys yes mate the cav did come from blyth my mate bought it about 6 month ago and i eventually persuaded him to sell it to me!

Welcome, familiar with your Calibra, interested to know what progress you've made with it since the last time I saw it

Dont know where to start lol!! Completely stripped the engine bay, seam welded, smoothed and then painted. Powder coated everthing. All new gaskets and seals in the engine and gearbox. In fact just about everthing has been replaced. Bodykit has been removed. Just got the back end to strip and powder coat!

There is a build thread HERE on Club Calibra if you are interested.


Cheers Steva
