Wow Ron, that looks amazing.
The wheels suit it perfectly in my opinion - was there ever any doubt!!!!

Wow, looking great Ron, I have some 14" Superlites to put on my 3000E which also has a vinyl roof. IIRC the rostyles you seek are the ones with the 4 long thin slots they were the ones fitted to a simmilar speced special as yours

Thanks guys, I have some nice clear pics coming so will post up soon. There is no stripes yet because i had a technical problem with the first set.
As far as the rest of the car goes everything seems to be bedding in nicely, all except the back axle. It howls like a 12 year old thats just been told they are not having that new mobile phone. So all new bearings and adjustment me thinks.
Was out cruising the other day and in the space of about half an hour 4 different police patrols checked me out, one even aggressively driving up and tailgating me. Not pulled up so grey hair is good for something Anyway then i got nervous so went home and parked it.

Out and about the other day.

I noticed that driving quickly right around the roundabout that the diff howling stopped. To me that meant that as the load came off the inside wheel bearing it went quiet so I pulled the axle out and sure enough the wheel bearing is shot. More bearings are on the way so hopefully this will turn out to be an easy fix.
Am quite proud of myself for finaly uploading pics all by myself. Im finaly getting right into the computer age.

Wow don't the rims take it to the next level . Good work

Looking seriously nice, Vinyl roof looks good too

Well after much mucking about I finaly replaced the axle with new wheel bearing installed. I had to do it twice as the first time the wrong collar was supplied which then fouled on the axle casing.
And what a difference. Now I can actualy hear everything else thats going on, that nice v6 hum, tappet noise, metal timing gear whine and the roller rockers being high tensile aluminium, have a definite ringing sound.
Pretty much everything on this engine has been modified and it sure has a healthy dose of torque and power.
Next Im going to change the rack from the 2.6 job thats in it for the standard 3.3.  I just dont think the 2.6 is necessary for road use even thru your favourite set of twisties. Makes me wonder what the previous owner was doing.
On another note Ive been running 95ron with the timing set at 13dbtdc. and this is only pinging briefly when in third gear at low revs and high throttle otherwise all fine so next will be to change to 98ron and further tuning, cheers for now.
