took her round the block decided to take her to the guy i purchased her off he was over the moon to see her done but the best/ worst bit was the original owners lady friends were there they came out to see her saying " is that poly's car" seems they had gone out on trips etc before she had died 1 of them started to cry.

 

they were over the moon to see her restored.

What was a ford 16 inch diamond cut seven spoke. Thats exactly the wheel i've got.

 

Getting them refurbed when i get time then there going on the cossie cab.

 

Still unsure what route to go down on the refurb. Diamond cut or high power silver finish

Must have used the same wheel design for the 16 inch version though mine have a RS sticker in the middle as oppose to cast

good old mondo is getting there should be done for next weekend fingers crossed.

 

Although there was/is a problem due to the fire i needed to change the A post trims we used some leather to match the seats this has resulted in not enough leather so he is using the original backs of 88 spec recaros. A shame but only way to go not tha u really see the backs.
