Its a bit cleaner than mine. Are you planning to take only short passengers with that rollover hoop?

I don't 'do' passengers.

Thanks - they are Minotaurs from www.tyresave.co.uk. Be aware that they DO NOT fit over Sierra rear calipers. I have used 35mm Eiback spacers to
clear my Fiesta calipers.

not really my cup of tea im afraid.
Maybe its a bad camera angle.
The front wheels look too far from the front of the car and the whole proportions look wrong, no thats the wrong word, they look different.
Im sure its a well finished example but not one of my favourites

I'm using cortina uprights and m16 calipers although I may get some wilwoods, would they fit over this setup. I guess they are 13" as it
is a track car.

Wow. Great to see it all together as car shaped!
- Really like the uber clean look, the close fitting pannels and lack of clutter. Cracking colour as well. Should have a lot of fun with her.

could maybe do with wider back wheels to fill the back arches, but looking good

I like it. It has the sort of look about it, that a man with a big 70's style moustache has. The look that says "I'm the
daddy".
Not sure what I ate for tea either
Dammit! Too many decisions....

The MNR with 'that front' is an odd beast - I've never seen a photo that makes it looks good, but in real life it's fine.

from that shot looks like some 22" wheels would look better in there. .
Attention to detail though is cracking Steve, well done , bet your chuffed as a buttie.

We have some ride-height issues - nothing that isn't easily solved. Chuffed as a buttie? Is that some anti-welsh comment? If it is... 19-26.

Nice one Tim. Looks excellent and really shows the quality of the kit with those tight panel gaps. Good luck with the rest of it.

Agreed but I cannot overstate the amount of effort that Steve has put into the body fit.
