I have faith in your any of your work Ron . If you are as good with a welder as you are with a hammer I can sleep easy at night.

Early christmas present to myself. A nice set of brand new 15" x 7" globes kindly donated to me by a mate who was going to put on a Rs.But since had a change of direction..He tells me these are one offs as he had them made thru a friend at Performace with his desired offset.

Great choice Matt. They will look fantastic on a white capri.[^]

+1, what Ron said!

I don't know that much about manufactering alloy wheels but it would seem like a large and expensive job to produce a one piece wheel like that in a "one off" offset?

Edit: thinking about it more I guess it could be an offset intended for another make but with the stud pattern drilled to suit as a "one off"?

hey matt

Looks good mate, I've never actually looked in the capri section before.....

Will have to bring the rs around one day and have a look.

Cheers Grant , Slow process as you would know..
That would be good you can also sample some burpengary brewery's finest

Update..
etched primed roof, front guards , sills,a pillars.
Pulled diff down getting ready to be swapped back to mark 1 instead of currnet mk3.I'm keeping the centre 3.44 and LSD should suit my driving habits ..(quick off the line and sideways)






Does anyone know the side number is a code for?






Was going to removes these but end I cant be bothered.






I am missing the strips along the sills.. So if anyone hears of a complete set ..PLease let me know..
If I dont locate a set b4 it is time to spray I will end up welding the holes up .

Happy festival season!!
Better do an update as I haven't posted here for a while. Restripped bonnett as heard a horror story re paint peel caused by mixing brands. So off it comes and back to PPg for remainder of car.
Had a bit of luck from Feebay have scored a near new set of sill strips, a radiator shroud panel and some adjustable Nolatec camber strut tops. Finally still waiting on a passenger side rear qtr repair section for the wheel arches . On the slow boat via noth pole...Once that arrives back into the shed to finish the prep work..
Will post pics later date..
cheers

Update.. Parcel arrived from the uk with my left hand qtr panel repair section .I have only cut out the bad stuff and will modify the repair section to suit.



Have removed 40 years of grease oil etc and a lot of previous owner rubber from the undercar and wheel arches.. He must have been laying some serious burnouts. Anway next step to spray underneath with underbody paint.That is going to be a fun job .

Looking good hotboost, thank god for repair sections hey? Makes life a little bit easier.

Are you planning to pump the chassis rails etc full off some sort of rust inhibitor before you do the nice paint underneath?
