Reminds me of the Carlos Fandango ad'.........wide wheels on the 105E Anglia???. (ARAF will, he's an old fart)

Anyway, if you cant get them on, Stiggy will have them off you.

I didn't remember them being on an Anglia, but the ad made Carlos Fandango famous.

This is a nice build, 335s on a Monaro

The exhaust runs under the drive shafts?, ans the CV joint boots will melt? and the fuel pump is quite exposed, and some major mods on the suspension mounting, and the rear diff.

Great project, be good to see it done, another pioneering modification by the big man
I've squeezed a 305/30 19 on a standard 9.5j rim, it didn't look right but fitted under the arch at least, what's held me back from exploring this further is the rim availability, would probably end up going bespoke split rims of some sort, but you'd need 4 & then it all starts getting expensive, done this on 2 previous cars & didn't fancy going that route again

Because he can

I like tinkering and I like the wide stance of a muscle car.

It was this or I was going to end up doing a turbo bike again and to old for that really!

That has yet to be seen.


10:1 he sells the tyres to Stiggy, and does the turbo bike instead.

Will the vette wheels fit on the r8?

Will get some custon rims as similar to the stock 20s as possible in about 13" width.

Gary! Both!! If I win the lottery maybe, the last bike cost me 27k and only did 500hp

Different PCD.

And there doesn't look like enough travel on those shocks.

20:1 he falls a kip in front of the tele watching strictly and does neither

Shame would have been helpful to borrow one from stig to do some measuring up

[gsd2000]

speak to http://magicaero.co.uk/

They did the arch work on the DW86

only out by 0.6mm but guess that's far enough.

You might get away with wobble bolts, to keep it in place, but I wouldn't want to use them on the road with that much power.
