Hi Bob I am sure you know of banded wheels in essex. If you drive it to them they will be able to tell you what width/offset you can use and then make them for you. Pete

Hi A 6.5" wheel with a 33mm offset should have a backspace of about 5" not 4.5" (unless it's a negative offset which I doubt, where it would be more like 2.5") as the rim width is calculated on the "J" section not the overall width but, the backspace is measured on the overall width which usually about 1" wider.

Thanks Guys ANDY.....Sorry I thought you also called them wings...Mudguards here go on bike or motorbike, wings go on cars. PLYMOUTHY...Thanks for that, I assume after you have made that part you attach it to the metal frame and then bolt it to the door yes? I managed to get some stainless pan head 12.24 3/4" long here in the UK but they are not countersunk, but they did have 5/8" long so I bought some of those as well in case they would be long enough. As I have not received them yet I want to be ready with the right info, as you can see from the pics they have seen better days. Thanks again. Pete

You need to see the shipping charges to the UK + customs + 20% tax.

Hi Andy Thanks for that, I must admit 5/16 UNC I understand, I was not sure about 12-24? I wonder is that the same thread? is it just another different wording like so many others we have between US and UK/OZ, eg: Fenders/Wings...Hood/Bonnet...Trunk/Boot etc HA HA. Thanks to all for the info. Pete

Hi Guys After a long search I have finally found a pair of armrests for the front of my P15, however there is no padding only the frames. Can anybody put a picture up of what the complete armrest and bolt heads should look like plus the thread size as there are no bolts supplied. Thanks in advance Pete

Rob I know Andy B does repro hubcaps for plymouth. I don't know what you want them for but maybe they have them. They also go under the name of mopar-direct on ebay. Pete

Hi I have used a vacuum advance from AB on my P15 which worked perfectly, however if you look at his picture of the advance (which is not very good) what you see is what you get so will need to use some of you original distributor bits. Pete

The reason I used 2 reducers was that I wanted one to work with ignition on and one with ignition off.
