"A cheap thrash car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

A wire came off the distributor.

Seat belts have frayed badly.

Headlights don't always work.

Seat position adjuster has broken.

Driver side window has smashed.

Passenger door handle has broken.

General comments?

This is a great car for driving in the paddock.

The engine goes hard and has never broken down since I have had it.

The rear wheels have little traction in the wet, especially when the car is facing up hill.

The headlight problem is more than likely a fuse issue. I suffered the same problem for a while... I discovered it was just a fuse AFTER I replaced the alternator (there were other problems aswell though).

I know where you can get a driver's side window. I don't know how old this comment is, but if you're still interested post another message...
