Twingo Mingo the F4RT powered Twingo GT

Over 2 years of post gap 🤮 I did an adey, I sold it and bought it back, I'll pick up from where I last updated,
So weight is an issue, either I diet or the car does, I like my love handles so I took out all the easy bits and had it on some proper scales

So the thoughts of getting under 1000kg gave me warm fuzzy feelings. Dash came out to be gutted figured heater matrix isn't strictly needed, nor the radio and speakersDSC_2213.webpIMG-20220530-WA0016.webpDSC_2232.webpIMG-20220531-WA0026.webpDSC_2257.webpIMG-20220709-WA0023.webp
 
So I then thought it was time to sell after a tree had enough time to grow 4ft in the time I parked it and went near it again. So I bought it back, colour matched my daily as a tow wagon, DSC_3687.webp

And seeing as it looks like a race car, I may as well go racing, so new seat in date new harness in date, loads of small changes to make it FIA compliant, (FIA reg surpasses MSI)
Can't have seat sliders, well you can but I'm not paying a grand for the privilege, so weld in seat mounts. DSC_4011.webpDSC_4021.webpDSC_4023.webpDSC_4036.webpDSC_4038.webpDSC_4037.webp

And for your amusement 105kg of shite in a 90kg sack

well i feel like i should update this, big update!

nothing, nada, havent looked at it,
i have to finish welding in the fia seat mounts,
repair the exhaust, and decide if i want to change to an ndo or tl4 box, the jh3 box as close as it is, needs a diff and i suspect hasnt long left in this world
