Very observant. Engine, trans and rear are from ‘73 Capri. I do think the rear is wider than stock Alpine. I’m hoping I didn’t pull the top too tight, since we are quite hot right now.Looking great...
Interesting wheels on the car.. Are they VTO.. What width on the rear... They are sitting out at bodlyline ( square tracked) but not with a deep rim.. Is it using spacers? Wide wheels with different offset or different rear axle?
i think it looks good without to much rim depth on the rear.The wheels are 15 inch Rota RB, 6 inch wide rims with 25mm offset, 185/55/15 tires front and rear. I could have definitely gone wider on the rear inset, but wanted to be safe.
