Nice. cant remember now (long time ago), but I'm sure it was one of these that was nearly my first car. Bright mint green, chrome 10 spoke steels and a spitfire engine. £500, turned it down as it needed shocks all round. Still wish i'd bought it. If it had a Spitfire engine it was probably a Standard 8 or 10. Incedentally, I was going to suggest TR6 rims...and then I looked at page two! I'd go lower profile on the front and then go for the drop! Paint-wise, keep it clean. That's all. |

Are those my old TR6 wheels? Yep, after the least thorough clean-up ever (well, they are covered by the Moondiscs...). |

MrT we found a few holes but apart from that shes mint, the underneath is like brand new. The only problem with it is the rear drivers side wing, and the old bloke who had it before us scratched the whole passenger side
Apart from that shes rust free

How did i miss this? This car is just.........................possibly the best thing on here at the moment.
The TR rims look perfect on this, correct stance too. Couldnt have hoped for a better colour and your choice of mods is awesome
TR rims perfect, rostyles are just propa!
