?I really need to get a closer look at this car. I wont be going to MITP sadly. What other shows you going to this year?

[camp freddy]

i didn't take the herald down the strip as the clutch was about out,
instead i rolled it and consiquently scrapped it

Hi all, where do I start, had another break down this morning
Fan belt snapped on the way to work !!!! at 06.30 , managed to
limp back 2mls to my local garage, luckily I know them and the chap
there opened up the parts counter so I could get a new belt, after
three tries managed to get one the right size ( must have odd pully
or something ) , ended up with a 850mm belt. Fitted it on the
forecourt and still managed to get to work for 07.32...

On the plus side I decided to give one of my old 13'' wheels a blast of
satin black paint to see how they look, don't look too bad, better than
the new ones, as they fill the arches out great....



comparison of offsets



think i'll spray the old ones until I save up for these



MMMmmmmmm!!!!!

Loving the car, looks awesome now it's all finished-ish

Quick question - can't be doing with reading through all 128 pages - how did that mini at the start of the thread end up F reg? Private plates or did you reshell at some point?

i ended up with an 820 fan belt i think... mine snapped on the motorway back from IMM took a few tries for the RAC man too! lol

i prefer the old wheels, better offset for sure! the ultralights will look great when youv'e saved up for them!

Painted my old allys yesterday, had the tyres re-fitted this morning, looks
a lot better with these wheels on....
