They look nice mate, what colour you going to do them or are you going to polish them up?

I think I give them to the sandblasters and then look what I'm doing.
But no, not polishinng them... Maybe one or two coats of clear varnish, thats enough.

Wooow, that's tight like... You know what

That can be a problem... The edges don't seem like they can take clip-on balancing weights.
and that smal step under the outer lip is hardly cleared by the caliper's bleed nipple.

Maybe it's possible to have some stick-on weights between mounting surface and caliper.

Offset seems OK.
But don't think they stick out as far as the Exactons do...

Well... It isn't actually what I hoped for.
They seem to be developed for drumbrake Minis.
With drumbrakes they possibly can be driven without arches & with 165 tyres.
witch discs... It's somewere between arch and no-arch.

Need to find some cheap wood & Picket arches and cut them down.

Selfaddhesive, lead-free weights are standart in GerMini. Do you mean them?
But you rarely find the weights which clip over the rim flange.
And not any type of flange allows these to be clipped on... As with those Momos, I suppose.

Tracked down an APT SPVP3 cam. Used but seemingly in a good nick.
Think that's going to be mine
Possibly the most expensive part so far. Gearbox cost me 15quid, by the way

Scattern-pattern cam, designed by the great master David Vizard himself.

Camshaft and primary gears are found, bought and brought home.
Cam is a SPVP3M, reground and plasma nitrided.
It is used but of known origin and doesn't show much wear.

Idler gear and primary gear are in good condition.
