Ami saloon'd be impossible, though.

Re: 1220cc Flat-4 Mehari DEATH project started... I've just had a delivery of nice shiny new tupperware... Woo!
Add that to the big box of G engine bits in the back of the Saab, and More Things Might Happen soon.

Re: 1220cc Flat-4 Mehari DEATH project started... Are you intending to take this to Czech Adrian?
If so looks like you've got your work cut out...
Top tip I remember from my GS powered Acdyane. Park outside someone elses house as the engine had a tendency to leak oil!!

A trip to the shoe shop for a fitting ...has been averted, through the joys of fleaBay... A tenner doesn't seem much to be sure if 175/65 tyres off a Mini will actually fit or not... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0302367981I've swapped the G alloys for a set of G steels - the ones that look a little like Ami Super rims, but wider and with a large centre hole. So - chuck that rubber onto one of the rims, and see whether they fit onto the car.

Anyway, the other one's in the boot of the Saab at the mo. Blimey, that's one HEAVY tyre.
