Great work man. I love the rotisserie. If I ever get a place with ebnough space I will build me one of those. What are you going to do for a power plant?

city hunter - for the power plant would want to keep it as simple as possible.maybe keep it to factory specs or have cam6 and side drafts. :lol: :lol:
hope funds will permit! :lol:
rotisserie is just home made.2 pillow blocks and scrap pipes and thats it. :lol:
any one who got parts let me know . anything might be of use to me.

Hey Jay, I've got a twin-carb intake manifold that will fit your engine. It's listed in the Mitsubishi Swap Meet board, make me an offer if you're interested.

Btw, great work so far on the resto. The first generation Colts are my favorite. Did your car already come with that header? I'd love to get one for my car, but they're non-existent in the US.

-Joe
