    Was there any sign of rust behind the seam sealer in the boot before you stripped it? Keep up the good work

    Unfortunatly no, there was no signs of rust anywere. the seam sealer was put on quite thick in the boot. So there's a small amount of weight saving after removing all that.

    Fitted one of the rear chargespeed wings today.

    I dont like the way it flares out 50mm at the top and then goes down to nothing at the bottom.



    So I have been toying with the idear of stretching the bottom out to suit the top approx 50mm.



    What do you think.

    Ps.. Bucket seat option in orange..

    How much will you need to space the wheel out to get it look right? And how does it look with the door shut?

    I have got some 10J rims to go on the rear and they will need a 20mm spacer to bring them to just inside the top of the arch.

    When the door is shut it will just look as flared out at the bottom as the top. hopefully

    I'm really liking the rear arches, do you have any more pics. The car will look very nice in white. Are you putting a kit on it, if so which one. Keep up the good work, looking forward to more and more updates.

    The rear arches are chargespeed, which i am going to flare at the bottom. I am going too fit the original side skirts back on with a little modification, I want it too look original'ish.

    Is this the first time you've done this sort of thing?

    I've got no indication of rust anywhere on mine, but i'm tempted to strip it down and see what's hiding underneath then giving it a good coating.

    Should look really good in white, keep up the good work

    No its not the first time I have done this, but it was a few years ago.

    I fitted an X pack kit to my 1975 Capri 3.0 GT. It was white aswell !!

    Maybe im thinking of the good old days



    not a good pic but you get the idea..

    As with the rust under the sealer you may be lucky and not find any but you cant tell untill it is removed..
