Dave posting on a mates login.
Yes it is true that I am cutting the spare wheel well out and having a plate to weld it flat.
As for the twin exhausts and purple neons.
On that note. Do you do drugs on a regular basis?
Cos it seems like it

I'm glad you agree Tony
What's the point in having it there when none of my wheels fit in it anyway. Besides it's not very aerodynamic
Especially on top speed runs

Just make sure you do give a thought as to how you will carry a spare wheel and jack if it is used on the road.
Mine are fixed down with straps etc

It'll only be used for track days etc so I'll make sure it's trailered.
I've got my AA Membership just incase though

I do like that alot. Very nice Jano
I have to make the decision today and I think I will regret it if I paint it another colour other than white so I've told the bodyshop to keep it white as it was

If Ford wanted them black they would have made them black as standard - Diana's was the only black one, leave it at that. S1's are white - end of !!!!
