Excellent ;D, I would not put arches on it either .

You do not need them anyway , they are the same height and width of wheel and tyre that were fitted to all 1275GT's from 1974 and they did not have arches when new .
Can recommend a company called Phoenix if your fitting a new chrome trim strip along the side of the car . Theres are the only ones that fit easily and believe me I tried a few companies products before I found them . Will find the number if your interested.

Just to prove that Sarah Did do her bit in putting Hanks bit's back on,and did her favertist job all on her own ;D ;D ;D

Pinched dads best boiler suit

caught in the act.

And She also did an oil and filter change + fitted a new set of plugs all by herself.Just goes to show that her Basic training has paid off.
I know who to call on for next rebuild now

Just got to wait for the shows to get his final bit's n bobs to finish him off.
