What APC did you use mate? I need to hit my arches some time. They're filthy!!

 

Nice work btw and keep the RS'. If you fancy change go for slightly wider dishes.

I got it from Screwfix, £13 for 5 litres and I just used it neat through a spray bottle. Leave it on for a few minutes then scrub with a wheel brush, pressure wash off.

 

RS's are staying put and staying original.

hi Matt, I did put a quick coat of dodo Juice under there but just a token gesture really. I just use Collonite 915 (i think), its great on the black plastic and doesnt go white.

 

Drop me a text and we'll sort something before Elsecar. Unfortunately most of my time is taken up with my daughters Swimming, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I teach swimming Thursday and often Galas on Sundays!!

View lots, and then have deep pockets to get it to where you want it!

 

Try autotrader, pistonheads and the forum. Cars like this have taken years of care and attention to get to this stage usually.

 

 

Where's the RS pics Chris? Looking forward to seeing them!

Was having doubts about going with the weather looking a bit wet!! Are you going Monday then?

 

Just washed ours ready, loathed to wax it as its forecast rain which will be nice !

 

 

Well, I'm definately going to Elsecar, no matter what the weather throws at us! So got some Blackhole last week and even though its set to be bad on Monday, I thought I would give the rado a good going over. Just a vacuum tomorrow and another layer of wax.

 

Some reflection shots from today:

Thanks Gareth, I'll double check the ride height and check out the wishbones (I'll try and get a picture). Excuse my stupidity but i guess you mean at the front??? Oh and by the way, the RS's are staying put......

 

Just been and checked, (measurements are from floor up through the wheel centre to the bottom of the arch) FRONT = 585mm & REAR 600mm.

If you PM me your email address, I've took some pics of the bottom front arms. They look to slope slightly up to the wheel.

Cheers m8! Nice to get comments like this. Yours is beautiful as well, I think you should get yourself another and have a standard and modified one.

Car looked fantastic today Chris. Honestly don't think I've ever seen paint in such excellent condition with literally NO swirling or anything to be seen.
