Forums Forums rhys's Herald Hotrod Project

Them mark will be able to get removed aslong as they are not tears. Think the stuff to remove them is about £20.

not long now babe till ur paint job, bet ur well made up anyway see you tonight, after work love ya xoxoxox

Finaly got hold of some decent seats these are of a rover and are recaros. Will be fitting these in the herald tomoz and picking up my harnesses aswell. Will have to find out and book it in for a retrim for when i get my car back. Am thinking of a near white almost cream leather retrim or a blue one like it is but in leather.

very nice, where did you find them?

Car went to the body shop today where I removed nearly everything of the car. Am just going to have to wait untill I get it back before I can do anything else. The cars interior is all completed and when I get it back that will mean the exterior is all completed so its just the engine and drive I need to start to look into andsave up for now. Am hoping to get this done around end of december begining of january.

spoke to pete today and he asures me it will be completed by the end of the month also he convinced me into shortening the bonnet scoop which he is going ahead with. Also due to a very nice girlfreeind found a pair of 7x14" wolfrace slot mags for the rear of my herald, front wheels are easy to obtain in the same style just not as wide.

Will be polishing these babies at the wkend lol

ooooo slot mags! have fun keeping them clean and shiny!

Ooo nice alloys!!!!

Nice wheels matey will look good.

got the wheels today and am impressed with the overall condition, quick trip to motorwold for some autosol polish and with the use of a drill they polished up really nice. Am going to see if they will fit the herald tomorow without the need for spacers, hopefully they will lol

its coming on great rhys, cant wait to see it when its out of the body shop.

I s..t my self a bit yesterday. After looking at the wheels their seemed to be an steel insert where the nut sit in but 7 of these out of the 8 where missing. I was extremely worried that I wouldnt be able to purchase these anymore due to them being ancient lol. But after searching the net I phoned a company called midland wheels and he has them for £2 each with nut am so made up and relieved lol. Also Tryed them on the herald without the tyres and they went on fine leaving 20mm clearance between the panard rod and plenty in the arch. Think this will be enough for the tyre to go on. Priced the tyres and £42 each but want some Hoosier one but will have to do a bit of research into them. Will get them on asap and get some pics up

whoa they actually fit on the back?!?
Nice!

Should have took some sample pics

I know I was shocked only problem is the although the nuts go on the studs the studs dnt go protrude the nut they need to be another 5-10mm longer to be safe so am going to have to see some one about fitting in longer ones. Has anyone ever had the expirence of removing hub studs on a 40 year old car lol????
