357 car Winter Rebuild 2009/2010

This page will be about all the off season stuff my team and I get up to during the off season, I got the idea from a posting on Stoxnet by a supporter who said that in the off season its boring with nothing to see or talk about, I think its a great idea so I am going to do regular updates and pictures of all the things we will be doing from the car rebuild and paint up to building a transporter to move the car around with.
Check back regularly to see whats new at team 357 Lewis.

We went up to Stock car Mecca yesterday the Wainmans farm which is the HQ for FWR,
Ray and I drove up in my old truck to Silsden in Yorkshire (Gods Country) and when we got there Frankie Jnr and Danny helped us load the car on to the truck, she has had most of her panals replaced and her Big Block engine rebuilt and Dynoed,

My new Transporter to move the car around from mine to FWR


357_transporter_002














I bought this old recovery truck to be able to move the car around as well as do some testing without having to ask Frankie, this way Puddy, Ray and I can go and test with the car during the off season, and I can try and learn how to drive it faster.
We will be modifying the truck over the next few weeks so it can carry all my tools and spare wheels, we are going to make a large box to fit the front of the car bed, I will post more pictures as and when we are doing this project.
I did have a very nice Bus but when I decided to run with FWR it was not needed and also I did not have a HGV1 licence to drive it.
Vosa are getting much more keen on stopping old buses now and I can't be bothered with all the hassle.
I sold the bus to Wesley Goodwin for his mate to use, I am looking forward to seeing it finished as it was a good bus.









 
This site was built by me and at 48 years old with zero IT experiance, I have had to teach myself how to make pictures smaller and how to upload things !! I hope you like it thanks for looking Jonathan Lewis.
