1972 PORSCHE RSR - wheels of torture






This episode wont take this project any further, but is just fun, no need to photoshop, when you can take a wheel from the box and "trial fit"...ok now i need approx. 30 mm spacer, to get the rear wheel in its place. the front is still a mystery... :-) But for my eyes, it looks RIGHT!
