Forgot about this thread so i better update!

I stripped the interior out:








And started fitting the flocked bits in:












Then my 10 and 11J wheels turned up:















Then stripped the axle off:





And had it narrowed by 4 inches so i can slam it on the current wheels:





And will hopefully not need the extensions for the new wheels....

Decided it wasnt low enough so dropped it down some more:










So now have some low milage -60mm from springs for sale if anyone wants some

[Drizz]

Then my new wider steelies turned up from the painters:

So took them to the fitters to have the tyres fitted:

And brought them home to fit them

So thats 10" wide on the front with 205s and 11" on the rear with 215s. With the narrowed rear beam i no longer need the arch extensions so had some new arches painted for the rear






My old steelies are for sale if anyones interested. Theyre 9" and 10" with 195s on.....

Got this switch out of a connect in a scrappy today, and its a Ford switch too. Never knew they came with NOS as standard lol

Then fitted the colour coded arches:
