| Re: SPF Wide Rear Shell? Brian:
I will definitely keep you posted as to progress, I need to go over and see how things are progressing, probably in the next couple of weeks.
As for the wheels I kind of fell upon them by chance, and they were almost exactly the same backspacing as original Gulf spec BRM wheels....maybe 1/8" off, so I proceeded to fab adapters front and rear to do the mounting. So far I have the rears mounted and the fit is really nice. The fronts should be on the chassis in the next week or so as soon as I get some pieces in and machine them to fit.
I would contact Vintage wheels as they sell the replica BRM wheel and you probably could get them widened to suit your purposes.
If you need some dimensions for the rear deck PM me and I can supply them.
Here is a photo of my rear setup.
The wheels I am using are 15 X 10 fronts and 15 X 14 rears and were previously fitted to a March chassis. They are a six pin drive like original, but the BC is different so we made adapters and fitted them as I didn't want to compromise the wheel dimensions.
Cheers
Phil
