Lovely driver mate, wish i had a mk1 as my first car.  I always wanted one but inherited a slow fiesta, uhh.  Good luck with the customisation and resto.


 :wink:

Thats a tidy driver.

Nice start 8)

those wheels look great mate, personally i wouldnt have stratch as its great for helping you kerb the wheels and hinders cornering etc..

5.5 x 14 is the same as standard 14" P Slots and they ride on 185/60/14 as standard, so if you do want soem stretch you'll have to look at something like 165/50/14 (if its made)

Is that interior out of Simon Fiaers old car ? Looks very similar.

I believe it is, but i didn't buy from him.

Liking very much now that is what I should have got, if you get bored and what to go topless next summer give us a shout !  

Like them wheels

But with the width of them being 5.5, then you aint really gonna get any stretch even on a 165 tyre, if you do go 165 tyre then alot of people do put the bridgestone potenzas on ( think thats what there called ).

Get some good wheel wax on them to protect them and also help you from having to polish them every other day to get them to shine.

Cheers Kenno

Will do Kenno thanks.

Bridgestone Potenza's are really good for giving a stretched look, without being stretched. The tyre wall curves out as they have a rim protector moulded in.

I had some on a mini (175/50/13) and they looked great. I wanted some for our Mk1 polo but Bridgestone don't make that size in that style anymore.

Nice car btw  8)

Good work! You see a lot worse under those arch spats on some. Interior is a brave choice. Are you keeping the original seats then?
