well after many things going t#ts up i decided to keep at least one of the dutton kit cars that were up at wonderland.
and so the other sunday i dragged the old trailer up there and dragged one out of the shed along with a landrover full of bits,,/odds an sods dragged the bl##dy lot over to north lincs.
where i studied it all for about three days then ripped the body off,, junked the wiring loom etc,,etc, so that i had a ,rolling, chassis i then put a couple of basic wire,s and a can of go,go, juice to the engine which fired up first attemt (i have bills/reciepts for over a grand thats been spent on this car some of wich is engine work)
so i,v no set about sorting it out and making improvments adding a crossmember or two and a few braces to the chassis duttons were built to a ,,bare minimum,, and are over twenty odd years old now
i took some photo,s and will try to post them (not good at that sort of thing ,,,i allways mess em up ,

I've got a clever little program that resizes pics when I right-click on them - what operating system does yopur computer have? (XP, Vista, Windows 7? etc) - there's prolly one for you too!
