No, I just used the chassis from it for the time being.

Tonight was full on FAIL. Fitted the turned arms and they are nowhere near turned enough for it. Will have to remove them again and redo them. Also it's only got a degree or two of negative camber and I was aiming for at least 5 which is what the Ami has. Back to the drawing board!

Right, sod all has happened to this car for a bit, so this evening I decided to give myself a major enthusiasm boost and see if it's as low as I wanted.

First, I had to change the arms, I didn't have a G rim so I made this bit of kit at work to help undo the hubnut....

Then, me and Dad put the body back on...

I am so happy. just a few odd bits of welding to do and then it's time to slap it back together and upset the MOT tester.

Nice work! Car looks really good with the white rims and wider tyres!

And nice tool you made! Think they will sell well if you make a few (I like to have one ;) )

I will try and make some more then!

Most people use a GS wheel which has a hole in the centre, or cut an old 2cv wheel so it can be used in the same way. I prefer to do this though.
