Bungle did you have the wheels banded for you or did you buy them from some one else?

[Bungle]

i bought them off someone on volkszone

i think they are re-rimmed rather than banded, stock VW center welded on to new 8x15 wheel

[Bungle]

i have since bought these (the green wheel)





6.5x15

they were sold as banded bay wheels but they aren't bay wheels as they are 15 inch and they aren't banded

but should be ok to go on the front

there is a lot more selection of off road tyres for a 15 inch rim

[Bungle]

the chassis now has a top



take 1 sheet of 3mm stainless plate



a bit of cutting and a lot of hammering



and a bit more hammering and a jack



now try and rust out
