The car looks awsome mate. love the low look.

I wish I knew what arches you had!
I want ones like that (or group 5 euros wwhich I have on my SPI thats up for sale, the diff with the group 5 euro is they curve round the front slightly)

I love the arches but wonder if they do them where the screws dont show....

i do need to get some new archs at some point. someone before broke the front drivers side so its had a bit of a messey repair!

well not much going on with the min at the mo... still need a alternator... making some lovely noises at the min, and the min has been like a snow plough in this weather... does sounds bad crashing over the clumps of ice and snow!

Its still going strong then .... :lol:

The repair on the arch was me as i was using it as a daily and didnt really want to have to buy a whole set of arches just for 1 arch especially when the turbo has taken up all my time and money .... I must come and see it once ive got the turbo on the road

Have you lowered it anymore since i had it ? as i can never remember it being that low?

Well finally sorted the horrible wheel wobble! swapped the rears and fronts over! looks like one of the wheels is slightly out of shape... so now on the look out for another 6x10 weller!!

Good thing bout the swap the Yoko's look alot better at the front, and the rear you dont really notice the nasty Camacs!

Nice car, cant stand the red drums though. The dust caps and some of the remaining chrome doesn't look right either. Other then that and the sunroof I want it. Amazing how much a bit of paints changed it from the first picture.
