I had Richard from VForce make me a pair of early glass guards 2 inches wider for my Oval- about 5 years back. They were done on a standard front
early guard-but I never used them, because they looked really weird. I ended up doing a different wheel offset and used Aero front guards. They are
really good strong guards with excellent finish. Try contacting him to help you out. From memory he had somebody doing his glass work.

Wheel offset ... now I know they do a different offset for the V Force spider wheels I have.
Time for some research. I think that will be the solution for the fronts.

Airkewld sell them, I got quoted $65 shipping per fender (to ipswich QLD), its not too bad and probably cheaper than anything you will get here.
Also try Dasresto, I think I have seen them on thier before

.
I had already set my new disc brakes up with the 114.3 stud pattern- and had bought the wheels and tyres. With some research found a rim with 40 mm
different backspace which was enough to get me out of trouble.

Thank you to all for your input. I am going to chase some ET36 Vforce spider wheels as I have ET20 all round.
I'll come back to the guards if I fail on the wheels.

Sports Sedan
I decided to change to Sports Sedan with the body and pan not being the same as well as having moved the firewall etc.
If I want to run IMP PRO I will get a '69 body down the track.
