Pics of my '72 2.4T/E - now with working pictures!!
Here are a couple of pics of my 2.4T. It's a California car, with MFI. Ive owned it for about 10 days and I love it! It doesn't have much in the way of whistles & bells, but it does have air conditioning.... that works My mate Paul noticed that the rims are different front to rear. What's the deal with that then? It's Bahia Red - or at least most of it is! It's mostly pretty sound, but with a few things that want doing soon, and plenty to go at in the long term, to improve it. Best bit is, it has 12 months MOT & a full service, so I can get on & drive it!
Hope the images come thru' ok - I'm a bit new to all this!
Here's those wheels - front
and rear, both ends on 205/60 P6000s.
Cheers, Jon.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for clearing that up. I guess it's not standard, but I quite like the look, so I'm not about to rush to do something about it. Is the offset the same for both types? The Avon site suggests that 205/60's are ok on a 6" rim, and it has a fairly chunky look about it (for a narrow bodied car), but the steering's a bit heavy at parking speeds with the 350mm wheel it has fitted. One of those 365mm Momo wheels would be just the very thing...
Now if I could only figure out why the pictures aren't displaying
Cheers,
Jon.

Had another go at the pictures...
I hadn't driven ny car since Friday, but had the chance to have a little local nip around in it earlier - then it rained & it got wet! I also left the window open whilst chatting to mates & It got wet on the inside too - D'oh! Still, I've figured out how to work the heater / demist, and I'm pleased to say that despite heat exchangers Like Rab Nesbitt's vest, they work pretty well!
Here's another go at the pictures, with Photobucket this time!
Front, flat 6 rim...
Rear, deep 6 rim ...
If that doesn't work I'm going back to my cave!
Cheers, Jon.
