Hello everyone,

I'm Frank, I live in Matlock Bath, Derbyshire.

I currently have a 1982 Mercedes w123 280e, track car.

It has a full EFI conversion using e46 BMW M3 throttle bodies, and a v6 vauxhall coalface for ignition, with a straight through twin 50mm stainless exhaust with a single back box.

It's fully stripped out, with plastic windows fitted.

Next on the list is a turbo conversion using a Toyota Supra turbo.

It's currently 240-250bhp at the flywheel, I'm planning for over 300bhp.

Cheers Frank.
 
Welcome to the forum Frank. You live in a lovely part of the UK. Had a great time touring around Matlock/Bakewell a while back. Furthest north I've ever been:eek:
 
Hello Frank. Welcome to the site.

Great intro. Post some pics when you have time.

Ant.
 
Thanks for the welcome guys, here's a few pictures of my Mercedes.

I'll post some video when I figure out how the YouTube link thing works...

Welcome!

Took my young family to Matlock Bath last week! (I've been before). Lovely place, gets nicer and nicer the closer you get.
 
Thanks, I love living here, I've lived here since I was 5.
I've got a small chip shop in the village.
It is a beautiful place to live.
 
Hello Frank, great area you live in. I was only in Matlock & Matlock Bath yesterday with the family but I also work that way from time to time. Where is the car in the pic?? (on the track)
