Always loved the shape of the early Scorps. :thumpsup:

Looks great, although I don't think it's "P" plate friendly... :D

Cheers.

Nice car mate. Can't say I agree with cutting it up for a POS tractor engine but hey, it's your car :)

Just out of curiosity, what's wrong with the current motor? Worn out/blown, or?

I've been reading this topic as it progressed, but as yet haven't commented.

Welcome to the forum :thumpsup:

What rims are you running at present (name and sizes)? There's no pics of them directly...

BTW, keep up what you're doing. I endorse what's going on with this Scorp.

I like :thumpsup:
Needs to go down another inch on the front, and match the rear height to that. There's not enough proper Jap-style early Mitsu's around :)

On another note, what sort of nick are the Hotwires in? Been after a pair for the front of my Scorpion for AGES, lol

thanks webby! its a bit of work to get the front lower( cant get the jack under it now) have to shorten struts and get new konis so not cheap either, but i change the front tyre size to 195 55 instead of 195 50 so it don't look as bad. i'll be doin the rear soon.
the wheels are still pretty good got minimal scaring

What sort of money would you be looking at? Just the rims, don't need the tyres.
Edit: For the old rims, that is.
