WHEELS WANTED

Hi
I'm hoping someone has what I need sitting in a corner of their garage...
I'm after a set of wheels for my Mk 8 Modsports racecar.
13" Rims with Ford PCD , 8" fronts and 10" rears.
Any suggestion on where I might find some would be welcome too.
Many thanks
Iain

Re: Mark 8

Its now running. Managed 40+ reliable laps at Mallory which is satisfying.
Now have a revised jobs list before it runs in anger ...
Thanks to Lee of Leicester Photography for the action shot.

Re: Lose the roof

I've always thought the targa panels from an MR2 or something might be nice.
While theres a hole in the roof Tim could fit you a full FIA roll cage and be done with all integrity issues! Notthat I think there'd be any anyway.

Re: Lose the roof

Hi Mark ,
Its got to be worth you contacting Tim Duffee.If he doesnt know it, its not worth knowing with regard to what you can and cant do with a Davrian. He still has moulds for earlier cars and still builds them , aswell as the current Darrian evolutions

Mark 8

I've finally bought another one. This Ford engined Hewland gearboxed car was once a lightweight racer, then a heavyweight rallycar, then intermittently dieted back to halfway in between as a sprint and hillclimbing car. Its now partly restored and I've taken it on, planning to take it back on track ...

Re: Davrian Road & Race Car Wanted

Hi Matt,
Harry Simpson still has his rolling chassis for sale.Might be worth a call.

Re: Double-bubble roofs.

Hi Hal, Good to have you on the site .In one session I think you doubled the traffic!It made returning to the site a really interesting visit. I'm fascinated by your double bubble roof cos at 6 ft 2 in tall a Dav can be tight. It would be good to see photos when you have some. I'm currently looking ...
