Tony B Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Don't encourage him! He's going into his fourth childhood. He was heard muttering Nitrous Oxide not so long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swill1952xs Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) I have a feeling this is another catweazle wind up...............why,...because he hasn't replied to a lot of the comments. No one can really believe he's going to do this conversion so there's an enormous amount of "Media Hype" and Mr CW is just sitting back and enjoying the ride. Now I don't know CW personally, but from what I've seen of him on here, he's a bit of a mischevious ol' bu**er, and he's probably laughing his socks off at the frenzy he's creating................ Hmmm. :cool2: Edited June 12, 2009 by Swill1952xs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I went down there yesterday. The champ engine is sitting on a pallet ready for its new customer. CW has opted for a Rover 4.6 as the new power plant. He might have to work a ZF box in to the conversion as well,as he is not too sure the the unit will match up to the champ box,even with a modified bell housing and adaptor plate. He is also looking at making up a new exhaust sytem as well. It will certainly cause a stirr on the the show scene when complete. Then again CW doesnt like conforming to the norm. Doubt it will make Beltring though. Hell of a lot still to do. What hell is taking CW so long? Has been out surfing again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swill1952xs Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) See................. I told you so............ He hasn't done anything to his Champ at all, apart from putting an exhaust pipe under the drivers side to annoy rivet counters.......... He's made a three wheeler with a boat for the body.......... an' it's got a Ford Anglia engine in it. :-D Edited June 16, 2009 by Swill1952xs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Elsdon Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) So is the Ford 472 Cu in V8 with a very big supercharger shown partly pictured underneath the boat with :cool2::cool2::cool2: next to it, the future Champ transplant motor! :nut: You might need a stronger rear axle, a big Dana 60 is the yank rodders choice i believe, or just gut a Cobra and plonk the Champs tub onto it.
