Yeah youd still have to cut the fronts for them.. but not the big front half radius youd need for the 13's

It depends on the wheels and how low you run it. I'd sort out the wheels first. Also work out which arches your going to use so the cutting 'blends' with them

Thats right, it is going to be low.. thats for sure, hence the tubbed rears. Still undecided on wheels, really like the look of Kean's on his build thread. I doubt I'll keep the revo's, they're ok but I have several other preferences... anyway, thats not the issue, still undecided on size/arches.

I like clubby on 5x10 revos with no arches but to be honest, the clubby is probably the only mini that can carry off 13s

Wouldnt 5's still need arches? 4.5's sit flat at back but still poke on front?

it went to a mates place to get the floor pan fitted (which he finished last year some time!) but never came home. its still sitting in the corner of his space as I didn't have space for it.

I'll probably get back into it next year. It needs the same work really on the passenger side and a bit of damage fixed on one of the rear doors after a van rolled into it. I actually quite fancy putting a standard interior back in and a lesser cam and use it on the road

Out of sight out of mind... it happens, once you get stuck in you'll be back into it!

So got a bit busy with the welder this afternoon and tacked the two wings and slam panel together... went together fairly well after a wee bit of fettling..





Then threw the bonnet on for a gander at the gaps and the like.. looks pretty good so far!



But I need to get the bonnet blasted, on top its fine but underneath lurks the forbidden nasty disease....



Can't have the likes of that socialising with my nice new shiny bits!

Well Dave it's something to work towards.. I'd love to make it, seems like I may need a miracle though when I think about it!

So got the bonnet blasted back to bare steel...



The fuckers didn't prime it as agreed.. and it was spitting rain when I picked it up so its getting the vinegar treatment right now..





Took the opportunity to do it inside in the heat whilst herself was away visiting her parents for a couple of days. Anyhow, I know there's nothing more she would love than a bonnet doused in vinegar inside on the table. Smells nice in here.. she's back tonight.. uh oh! *hehe!*
