That front wheel looks awfully big, what tyre size does it have?

I think it looks bigger as it just sat in front of the original. Can’t remember the size will have to check tomorrow. I’ve gone by recommendation from Malcolm at Automotivenostalgia.

Hugh - Grassbank are developing a cream version of their main instrument replacement backing which would match your auxiliary gauges perfectly. Have a word with Justin.

Thanks that’s what I have just installed in there. I blanked off the fuel gauge as that is in the cortina pod

Thanks Paul for putting the two photos so people can see them straight away. I don’t know how to do that😁👍

Well done, looks like a very well built example ! Time to get out and enjoy it now.

Thanks
I’ve made it as useable as possible with DAB, Bluetooth, Apple Play, reversing camera, aircon etc
We were supposed to be driving around Italy now on holiday😩😩

Where is the reverse camera lens hidden? Nice job - I do like yellow cars.:eusa_angel:

Hi it’s sitting above the 7 on the number plate, not too obtrusive.
Thanks for the comments 😁

Really pleased with them. Justin at Grassbank gave good advice for fitting them too.
