Hi LilZee

Nice looking car LilZee, got anymore pics?

I think they look a lot better with the corner bumpers

hi

not posted on here much but been a member for time.

here are my x's 1978 (prov sold) & 1986

Wow nice car. What are those rims?

 

[LilZee]

hi guys

the rims are the original factory rims that came with the earlier models

any ideas or advice shaun?

i am now keeping the 78 as a project and stripping the vs. the main problem i'm having is wheels & engine upgrade. ideally i would like a 15" or 16" rim with the deep dish euro look. i am strongley leaning towards banded steels. as for the engine i,ve heard the punto gt is an option?

Hi LilZee

There are various upgrades, try looking back through older threads on the forum or http://xwebforums.org/index.php for lots of extra info

Cheers Shaun

Nice to know what they look like in metallic red with the 1300 bumpers. l have been toying with the idea of getting those for my 1500 but l rather like the dinner table bumpers.

might me due a bit of that myself..

anybody know what the colours of the wheels should be?? - planning a refurb

 

[purf]

Silver? which wheels have you got Charlie?

 

[varesecrazy]

here is the spare..





glad I removed it for the pic - as the tyre is scrap..

thankfully a mega common size:worship:

OK - so back to topic = what colour is the painted rim..??

 

[purf]

I think they are metallic anthracite grey on the recessed bits. Are they the Speedline wheels?

 

[varesecrazy]

Could well be.. Ive not got that far..
