What I love about this thread and even more so having seen it, is that Keith is doing what he wants with it, within budget constraints and at his own pace. A real world build that will result in a lovely drivers car.. I'm looking forward to following that tail over Dartmoor & around the lanes of sunny Cornwall. Keep the faith KS!

Yes, about six other main hoops were bent up at the same time. This was the prototype and only had to make a minor adjustment. Love it!

Bolt on to either SWB or LWB struts – mounts swappable to suit either. AP Racing vented/grooved disc, six-pot... All fits inside 15in Fuchs (even my space-savers).

Great little car with a big heart coming along really well.
