It will be a non metalic white, planing on making some rear stays from 10mm alloy tube flattended, bent and drilled at each end. Second wiper recess glassed in.

Does anyone know if there is a "Fauxrrari" badge available as that what I'm after.

If those are genuine Ferrari parts Tony they must have cost a fortune!

The badges are as genuine as you get on Ebay! Not that expensive either, the wheels are a mix of Chromodora and Campagnolo (basicly the same) these are magnisum and very light, made for Ferrari, reported to have come off a 1982 308, the wheel centers were Ebay again and came from Italy possibly designed for Lancia Alloys but fit perfectly, think Ferrari had some involvement with Lancia 1970/80's, wheels cost me £150 on Ebay but had a 500 mile round trip to collect them and a adapters specialy made in the US, (Check back though the build) oh and the ss grill is off a Mk2 Ford Mondeo ST. So a right mix with indian boot hinges off a 1950 British car.
