Josh Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Looking good. Bet you can't wait to get her back on the road and not have to worry that the gearbox is going to go BOOM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) Now the work has started on the arches. I got them initially flared by arch enemy, knowing full well they'd need professional bodyshop attention afterwards Going to flare them out a bit more to make it look wider and also give further clearance for the wide rear wheels and new 315 tyres....
