[HAIRIBO]

I really need a spoiler like that to finish my replica off

[HAIRIBO]

The 8 spoke Dymags used on the 95 cars were 19"

[cav32]

Mikes car you see above is on Dymag 18's think they are 9's yes...in 95 it would of raced on 19's though i think he finds better tyre choice on the smaller wheels now.

My car is on 19's, i think they are 9 inch wide ill check tomorrow

Been pretty busy with the car...this is how it looked 3 weeks ago...still a lot to do:

Rebuilt all the suspension...everything 2 pack black with laquer...new wheels bearings, disc's, pads, nuts and bolts you name it i've replaced it:

The car came out of the paint booth on Tuesday morning:

First job was to heat wrap the exhaust tunnel...tedious and time consuming to do a nice job:

By Thursday morning it was starting to take shape...huge job getting the loom, extinguisher, fuel and brake lines in neat and tidy plus refitting all the cable tie saddlles:

Yesterday morning dash is now fully finished and ive power the loom up and checked everything works as it should:

Pedal box fully finished, new brake lines, master cylinder's and resovouirs:


So im back to it tomorrow, should be a rolling chassis in a few more days as i have all the corner's built up already.
