yes they do look well but its because they took the trouble to make a bit off a flare that makes it look a finished product rather than just hacked off to get tire clearance,

Do you know where the car is now? I'm sure Colin would love to catch up with the car he bought from Sox & Martin! Where and when was that pic taken?

I bet that car could tell some stories! Built by Sox & Martin for the infamous Rufus Boyd (AKA Brooklyn Heavy) as a pro stock match race car and also used for big money street racing in New York. When imported to the UK it remains to this day the fastest English pro stock car, it was almost a second quicker than the rest of the field at the time, and is partly responsible for the class disapeering in this country shortly after.

Not sure where the photo came from, but I would certainly like to keep up to date with progress... is there anywhere else we can follow the restoration?
