I've decided!
If we get i, it'll be raised at the rear! No Wolfies mind, nor a light for the diff!

I'll need to find some trimrings as well!

Problem is down here there's a mixture of gorgeous narrow winding roads, good fast straight B-roads and undulating, long fast curving ones like the one over the Brecon Beacons from Brynamman.
So, bench seat with harnesses?

Nah, that wouldn't look right, not sure, maybe Toptaff would compromise and let you get some retro style big comfy bucket seats, you know those big leather ones? Those would give the cornering support and look good with harnesses, at the same time the bench is really comfy and looks really retro too, both would give a great retro look, personally I'd go for the buckets, but either would suit the car if you did end up using the bench.   These things are dead expensive but I'm sure I've seen similar seats for lower prices, or second hand genuine 60's buckets maybe? (Those are Corbeau Classics, which are £249 each!  ) |

Yeah, maybe.
But fat ones on the back and skinny ones on the front.
Retro modding for a retro car ;D

If I was going for wheels of that period (or a bit earlier) it would have to be Cragars - or, if I came into money, Astro Supremes.

with banded Rostyles it'd look very Triple C circa 1969, which ain't a bad thing.

Should I do the Zeph like this for a truly retro '70s custom look? No,.. you should do the Zeph in a Mooneyes Japan stylee ,.. Could make a SERIOUS cruiser out of it. If you don't I'll come round and steal it and do it myself, then drop it back on your drive  |

Yup -
Mooneyes-style is definitely the best way for it.
