I'm new to this site as I recently bought my first mini van, a 1980 Austin,
https://www.dropbox....mAyZuPHV8a?dl=0
and would like to replace the current mk2 grill with a mk1 grill, moustache and whiskers. Do I need to remove the pressed grill panel to do this? I rather rashly bought one from P & L minis ( Mk1 MORRIS COOPER GRILLE PACKAGE (24A2158KIT) before thinking of asking you guys what was involved or if this is the right one! Also, as you can see, the pressed panel has been cut to accommodate the 1275cc metro (I assume) starter motor. Is this a problem?
Also, I would like to fit 10" wheels. What wheel width would look best with group 2 arches without catching when turning? I think the van currently has spacers (not sure what size) to fit the current arches so I'm guessing this will affect things? The current wheels ar 12x5" ultralites.
Any advice most welcome!! Lots more stupid questions to follow!!
Cheers
Jim
