Forums Forums rhys's Herald Hotrod Project

I can now imagine youre churpy little face in it rhys

Like them matey wasnt to sure if i would but they look good.

Dont do it!! Putting wing mirrors on as door mirrors! Ive heard lots on people on the mini forum complain about not being able to see out of them! They all take them off and put adjustable bullet mirrors on or something different...

my 2p

spent the day at automotion puting the car back together, bit of a nightmare trying to remember what bolt goes where plus they are all unc thread sizes. fitted all the windows and fuel tank etc. It was getting flattened to day and buffed up. Looked really smooth where it had been done. Heres a pic of the side pipes fitted not: need slight adjustment to create a perfect line with the car.

Looks good, wish it was a wider shot?

But you could be only showing snip its to keep us guessing.

think he teasing us with close up big lol looking good mate

just bought these for £30, 15x10 very fat and will require me to fabricate new inner arches to accept them. bit unsure what the holes are for around the edge but will have to see am collecting them later.

maybe the holes are for a disc to be bolted to check to see if the tyres have moved while under acceleration?

or you could ask the person you are buying them off lol

didnt get them wheels in the end, he contacted me telling me some1 offered him more so I left it. In the mean time I have decided to get the bulk head of the herald resprayed due to a load of brake fluid spillage at some time in its life. At the same time I stripped the master cylinders fitted a new seal kit, polished them up to an okay standard and resprayed the cap and cylinder bracket black also fitted new rubber boots. Need to fabricate a alloy battery holder now.

that looks like a shoe horn

heres another pic of it in the body shop with the pipes on all interior in place and windows etc fitted, will be getting finished this week, then of to get the retrim.

that looking well sweet mate bet you can not wait now till it all done

That looks fookin sweet.

How you getting on with the engine?

lookin good mate, should have that manifold by the weekend if u still want it mate

heres a pic with all the front end together now. Went to tweeks to day and got hold of some braided hose and a high flow fuel filtter to allow me to connect my fuel cell. Also needed a breather to prevent any vacume. Also most major mod I have just bought a willwood 4 pot big brake kit comprising of 2 callipers brackets, discs and all other fitting aswell as a set of fast road spec pads.
