Dans 'widearch' project (2016 updates)

Knowing Dan he probably just found some freak of nature wheels that were one offs (a bit like him self!)

Search the net for them mate, I'm sure they made more then one set.

Scott

they probably arent ET49 to get an 8" rim in without mullering the inner arch clearences.

You know you can actually ask compomotive if they can make stuff rather than relying on a website that is probably not every often updated

Thats looking pretty sexy for paint the colour of the bottom of a puddle:plol

Seriously tho, I think the silver detailing of the cage etc is inspired - it'll set off the colour and help frame it.

NICE!:D

the shells looking ace mate really nice!!

Looks alright that!!

cheers chaps, the ball is rolling nicely now so i thought i better add some updates.

First off though, in response to the wheels, alas as per in my thread previously, the details of what i have done with the wheels i would prefer to keep private until i have them fitted and rolling, purely as i wont give out wrong information until its proven to work. There are many variables in what i am doing that we are unsure of, what work may/may not be created and also in the long run there are cheaper ways depending on your imagination and purpose for the vehicle.

Now back to the progress

First off fitted my trusty old brake lines

Then we fitted the box to the engine and fitted it in and tidied it up

Obviously once it was all fitted we slapped a few extra parts on and fitted the bumper and lights for the 'almost' finished look with the bonnet just rested not secured. NOTE there are no indicators, this isnt an issue as we sourced a very random set for the bumper from the scrap yard, they have the same contour as the bumper so will sink in lovely but alasd we do not know what they are off, but should be fitting them early next week

By midweek apart from a few bolt on parts it should be ready for a final spanner check and start thinking about an mot. The big panic now is getting the graphic designs for 4 vehicles and getting the nova done first and asap as that truly will be the icing on the cake

im al excited for ya. looking great mate

Looks awesome from the front Dan. Cant wait to see the Th's fitted!
