I'm not sold on the spare wheel idea but seeing I had the pic in photo shop I thought I should whack it on forum.
.........Probably the luggage rack with distortion would be my fav.
Just would take me long time to make.

What about a luggage rack with a strategicaly-placed wicker picnic hamper?

Wicker basket is Great Idea.
I especially like the Breathability - I need more air for the extra HP.
- I am making steady headway on the final parts of the blower set-up.
I will be learning To TIG soon, only trouble is that I will probably want to re-do My manifold in Aluminium.

I had lost Pics but some Wonderful Person put them Back - Thanks Heaps ,Was just about to start Doing whole thread Again..

There is a generic pic problem on the forum at the time of writing this.

Thanks oval TOFU , Yeah not heaps of neg camber on rear - trouble is its a bit High.
It is Swing axle " I dont want to break CV's", I would like to lower it more but I still need the Large Diameter wheels - Oh also they
are Off Set inward.
That is the rims are offset to narrow track - keep them under the guards.
I intend to run spats, so will see how they look before lowering.
I like the smooth tidy look , so the Blower hiding (eg Case or rack) will upset this look but " cant have every thing."
must get some more pics of my handy work, I've fashioned the blower Hat / and am in the middle of Manually cutting a Key way in the Pulley
drive dog (thanks to Larry at Schwing for instruction.)
The next big part is the deep dish Alloy pulley wheel on the Blower - I'm learning to master that Lathe.!
(the people at work think I'm real Conscie , but I'm working back for hours doing blower parts for the "Project...mmmmmmmmmmm):kiss

Thanks for the pic - Oh I edited it a bit..(next , I'll find out there is a Oval one available). This kept me amused for hours.

Now what I have learnt to make recently.
the manifold " upside down"
and the drive dog - I turned on the lathe - and cut the key way myself.

did you notice the " drooping angle " on the side draught.
This is to accomodate the stance of the car + still have an angle down on the carb to avoid flooding (thanks to Greedy for the tip).
-
in the second pic there is a green plate placed to represent the grill above the engine, the blower sits just below the grill - wont I be spewing if
I've miss calculated and it sits too high !
