Hello - it's my car!
I have just rejoined the club and wrote something for the last magazine and will continue the story of the car with some further updates.
It's been an interesting journey but with the car in the hands of Youles Racing, 2013 should be the year that the car finally starts to provide some enjoyment.

Alistair, I look forward to you progressing with the car, will you put the info on here or just on RR?
Paul, are you the guy with the other Rochdale in Alistairs thread on RR

Thanks John P for information & parts to help me along the righteous path Laughing and I appreciate the comment that the modifications are in keeping, this was my aim as I like the styling and wanted to keep it looking period and still entirely recognisable as a Rochdale.

Just a quick, 1 picture update.
The car is now being reassembled after a lot of new work carried out by Mike Youles racing.
The changes are much more than skin deep, but I though some of you may appreciate the more subtle bodywork this time around



I'll provide an (overdue) update for the ROC mag.
