Somebody asked what my car would weigh when it was done... and now it is official.
1120kg with half a tank of fuel, no spare wheel or jack. Now that it is tested we can modify the seat runners and floor to lower the seats and fit lightweight door mirrors, so another 20kg will be coming off that I expect. Conkers

The wheels are 16x8 compomotive split rims. Found them for sale used a couple of years ago and bought new centres to use them on my VW camper bus, then bought new centres again to fit them on the S12. Very 80's, very period... very strong and very very heavy. :-(

Glad to hear that you all approve and like the wheels... I would have liked minilites myself... but it was not easy finding them for sensible money in 16". And as we have 10 years supply of part worn "R" tyres (dot marked race tyres) then we really wanted to run 16" rims.
Had looked into S40 volvo rims, but would ahve needed silly spacers for the ET34 offset... then suddenly remembered that I had 16" compos on my VW bus, and the compomotive importer lives only half an hour away... so a quick call to him and a root though the attic of his stores turned up a set of saab wheel centres... 114,3 - 4 bolt.. perfect for the nissan.. then just pulled some long porsche 924 rear wheel studs off the dead cars round the back and jobs a good un!
