How to build a Westfield Sports Car






Length: 8:50
Description: Shows the construction of my Westfield Sport 2000 module build (lotus 7 inspired) sportscar. The engine is a ford duratec 2.0l with a Weber Alpha throttle body injection (204hp), with lightened flywheel, sports clutch plate (hydrolic), connected to an MT75 - 5 speed quick shift gearbox. This is connected to a 3.92 LSD Ford 7" differential. Suspension is fully independent and fully adjustable with a wide track front arrangement and front and rear anti roll systems fitted. Brakes are AP racing 4 pot (ventilated discs) at the front and VW golf mk4 solid discs at the rear, operated by an AP Racing master cylinder.

Nice tidy job there,nice size garage too,only one thing,shame you had to use a mini wiper motor and rack,they were crap on the mini and 100 different BLMC cars they were fitted to.Slow,jerky,dont wipe properly,rarely park right either,I always use for racks and motors shortened from MK2 escort,even MK5 or later can be used.The arm spindles are 100 times better they are operated by flat bars and they wipe and park properly,just my preferance anyway. Super motor,wish you many miles of happyness!!

Did u have to bend any sheet metal or weld anything or cut any sheet metal?

No, all chassis frame is complete when it leaves the factory and all aliminium panels are pre cut to shape. You will need to drill, rivet and file metal and fibre glass though.
