  1. cool, i think ill swap the pepperpot tyres over to the ghia wheels when my extraordinarily slippy tyres wear out on the back! I think the tyres i got (part worn) are actually the same age as the car! They are goodyear gt90s and i checked my original spae and the tread is almost identical - goodyear gt70's! I dread to think what it'd be like with them on the front!!
  2. Could i squeeze 205's on my Cortina ghia alloys?
  3. See its that sort of car that makes me wanna go Japstylee. I bet they're cheaper than capris......
  4. So, retarding your ignition is a way in which you can run unleaded in a leaded engine? If so, how come? surely you'd lose loads of power and also i dont see how it'd help as isnt the lead a lubricant for valve seats? Does retarding the ignition merely get rid of pinking? and if so how? question time! Cheers

  7. No not at all, i couldnt get the horn to work off the stalk at all on mine so i wired up a doorbell and just put it on the centre console!
  8. "Oh it was a simple job - ball joints" pah!!
  9. Same way you primered it! Just keep the can at the same angle and spray smoothly. I think very fine grit wet n dry between coats keeps it smooth. I was wondering how you'd get to the middle smoothly though, you might need to stand on a chair or something!
