Nice to see you got sorted. I saw this on ebay ... looks like you've got a beauty!

Yeah it looks a beautyon the outside. Interior needs a clean, but takes two secs. Going to be spendng a day on it soon and have it moped and waxed.

running a little camber on the rear now

Hmm, I would be prepared to get stopped.

Those wheels stick a long way outside the arches.

Ha i have been but it seems to be okay as its not the tyres, same as the E-type's and as i pointed out to the police man his centres poke out side the arches on his van ;) ha

My rears stick out a good inch and I've never had a problem. Still, never say never though.

Wasn't thinking about the tyres, it's the spikey centre hub I was thinking of, you might get pulled under Section 40A RTA 1988.

Yeah, they might be the same as E-Types but on an E-Type the hubs don't extend outside the wheel arches and are standard for the car, neither of which apply to yours.

Not wanting to spoil your enjoyment of your new wheels, just thought I would mention a potential drawback.

now i realise i'm about to sound like a complete newbee (i'm not i swear!!!!) but i've never posted a pic before and i can't work out how please someone explain

Same system works on here (I hope)

Nothing like a nice red MkII GT, unless it’s a white one!

Kind of reminds me of how mine once looked as opposed to now …



Oh well, good things come to those that wait!
