Phil, you won't want to start it when its fully assembled. It looks too good to be in a car, maybe try it as a coffee table.

Keep up the great work, can't wait to see it live again.

Looks like you have a poof-teenth of a bee's richard of clearance to your calipers. They look awesome, they will suit the Cortina to a tee..[:p]

The only thing that can beat the picture of the cossy and wheel is seeing the whole thing back together, amazing phil this has got to be the best Cortina out there.

Yeah Fehlbie, I was expecting a few more mm's of clearance, but there's just enough...I dont think there could be any less actually[:p] The front calipers sit in 1mm more than the rears so will have an extra mm of room on the front as the centres are the same front to rear.

I cant wait to get some rubber on and drop it down...I think it will look awsome with those rears tucked up under the arches
