DEMAC's 1200 Coupe

Three build threads.... why not start another dedicated to the first 1200 I had/have.

As a timeline I bought this with my Dad about 25 to 30 years ago and we were going to race it. It was a boring white originally and needed a lot of work.
We kept the original motor as we were aiming at some sort of 1200 cc class.
But... it got a complete refresh including:
* Fully balanced bottom end
* Rebore (to i think 30 thou) after hottanking
* Lightened Flywheel
* GX head with L20 inlet valves
* Electronic ignition
Then we added
* Twin DCOE42 Webers
* Inlet manifold that came with the second hand webers
* Extractors
* Home made coilover front struts (no longer on there)
* Koni rear shockers
* Replaced the rear frame suspension bushes with steel ones
* Also added traction arms that are removed for now.
It had club rego back then but that lapsed and it went into storage.
Alas it sat in the container in the pictures for about 20 years ... dry but alone ....
