Just a little bit of gossip for you all............
I dont know if you have been on ebay recently, but if you have, you would have noted a brand new, never been on the road C5 for sale, from my old mate Chas (the C5 Master). If you read the write up you would have noted that he has a C5 that he has converted to run with 49cc petrol engine. Well this baby I called Mk1, I have trailed the C5 and can tell you, it goes like stink , it has all the usual C5 refinements (indicators, horn, lights, but has disc brakes front & rear, along with working speedo, even twin exhausts for all you pimped up C5 fans). This C5 is NOT FOR SALE YET, but will be soon, once Chas has prised it off me that is
Well enough of all that waffle, what i wanted to let you know, was that Chas has gotten busy.............
Gossip has it, he is working on C5 Mk2, which I have on good authority, will have a 49cc petrol engine, but also the benefit of a C5 original motor, fully working from battery, but as you use the petrol engine, this charges up the battery.....hey ho, no more flat batteries
If anyone is interested, I will sneak some photos on the site, with more detailed information, on the build etc.
I tell ya, Chas is like Mr T on speed, give him a handful of paper clips....1 hour later he has built you an armoured personnel carrier/ tank...
