the dished ones on the white car? there stacked behind the car. im the same, buy parts as and when the dosh is avaible.thats why mine's going to look a bit groggy, get all the bits to make it go turn and stop, the paint work isnt that important to me.

these are 8x16 the bloke i got them from(ebay) stated they came off an escort cosworth track car, id like to get them refurbed but that can wait till the car is up and running and it doesnt need any more parts. it would be nice to have it all painted up nice and shiny but times are hard and i know wats guna happen to it. the usual, ill get it finished,use it a couple of times and then ill get bored and sell it. thats life

He's a well known member on here, and he has a yellow 3 door. I honestly thought it was unique, obviously not though as you've a yellow bonnet too!

Just a joke.
