Car is moving forward glad to say. Spent a few more ££££ and main dealer for plenty new parts. Also rear sub frame dropped and stripped with all new bushes to be fitted. Got it back today from powder coaters.
Funny thing is when I got the car there was no paper work except log book. Now with the rebuild I have a massive stack of receipts which im scared to add up :D

Hi,

Wheels look good - may i ask where you got them done and how much. I have the same wheels on my Baur and plan to get them treated this year. Also what tyres are you going to go for - i currently run 185/70r13 but have been advised i can go upto 205/60 on 6" rims.

Thanks. I'm happy with the way the wheels turned out. The company is called lepson and the cost £55 per wheel plus vat.

I'm looking to keep the whole car stock so tyres will be 185/70/13. As per Brand not sure trying to find Uniroyal Michelin.
