Re: Andys 83 Coupe
If you have made it wider, it will probably hit the splash gaurd on the inside of the front end Please check it when lowering the front end for the first time, get someone to help

Always get a grown up to help!! Try putting some blue tack on the bits that might touch, if it is touching or is very close it will show on the blue tack when you reopen it.

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
Sounds like good tips there guys, I was just trying for a few more CCA's on the battery as with the high compression motor it takes a lot out of the battery. I can always revert back to the other size battery if it does foul but it didn't seem too when I had it in a dummy position before.

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
Is the paint radiant red? Looks like mine, hard to do the colour justice on pics

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
Thanks for the comments, I will post a few more pics once I get her clean and out in the sun, I'm just giving the wheels a good clean. The paint is actually a Honda colour (Monza Red), unfortunatley it looks pink in the photos but its a propper red and definetly not pink.
