All - thanks for the encouragement! When you set off down a different path you never quite know how it is going to be received. With several "standard" cars in the garage, I was very keen to have something a bit different. Lets see how it turns out.
John - hope you are well and coping with COVID restrictions? Nick - I hope when that Scottish tour takes place you find time to stop off in Banchory! You would be most welcome, and a joint blast up Royal Deeside would be fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Ill post more pics showing the sides of the car with standard front and modified rear arches. The genesis for this was a comment from a respected previous owner and car builder who advised against going too big on the tyres without enough power. Im going 6 and 7J x 16inch Fuchs and just waiting for the lockdown to ease to try the best tyre combinations. We have a local mobile tyre dealer who has said he will work with me to find the best wheel/tyre combination. I'm thinking 205/55 at the front and 225/50 at the rear as a starting point. I am hoping for 150 bhp from my 2.2L engine. Might be time for some pics of that although its not quite finished..... |
