cheers guys! from this perspective/angle i could do with slightly smaller rear tyres when i've worn out these. Died, are those 6" wheels on the back? If so, what size tire are you thinking about for those?

i should have when fabs got them and they were reasonably priced. now i did find some yokohama DOT street tyres in that size. i did some research and found out they were popular with the 914 and 911 guys.

Would love to see those 911 steel wheels on the back of a Cal Looker and a set of standard width ones for the front.

In addition to being wider, they look like they are now bigger than 15" diameter, too. Could be the picture playing tricks.

Right-hand drive! A true Brit street rod. Jag IRS rear, with one-off uprights etc, and Jag E-type torsion-bar front springing. The builder, Nick Butler, was a fully-qualified aerospace engineer. All his cars looked the dog's whatsits, but handled superbly. A real craftsman.
