Whatever you do don't fit square wheels. Everyone I know that has fitted square wheels has commented on reduced performance and fuel economy.

Hope this helps.

In 1985 I had to pay £100 for one rear light lens. Pete is a great guy, he has helped me a lot in the past.

That's top drawer photoshopping buddy, even without a mouse. I say steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeels are the don. That Dart looks like a brute, as does the Bee.

Steels it is...
