October 17, 201411 yr comment_689593 Oh man - Eagers! I had 225/60/R13s back in the day. How is it that raised white lettering and wide 13" tyres ever went out of fashion? If the overstretchers didn't have to, would they? The Jellybeans look good too. Report
October 17, 201411 yr Author comment_689599 Retro!! The hardest part was finding 13 inch Eagers in good condition, a lot of ebay/gumtree hunting. I did some sanding to get rid of the major pit marks and scratches with 600/800 grit from memory and then had them polished by a guy in Coburg. I tried doing it myself but was never happy with the results plus I have to get this thing driving for my wedding in 5 weeks! After polishing I painted the centres and polished/painted the original centre caps, modified them to fit and bam! done. I have heaps to do, but it's getting there. Report
