Your Libra looks great, I hope you have lots of fun with it. I started with a Spyder last year and got my hands on a Libra a few months later. They're great cars and I've had many happy hours 'tinkering' during lockdown. It's been a lifesaver! |

Ah I know that one. Factory built and originally owned by Steve Garland who ran it for many years as his daily. It eventually needed a rebuild and I bought it intending to do just that. Unfortunately I didn't get around to it and sold it on to Ryan Yarrow. He did rebuild it entirely. Rebuilt engine and gearbox with special ratios. There is a build thread on here somewhere.

The exhaust or whatever it is wrapped in material looks odd, what is that? |
