The wheels are 13x10 3 piece, with Dunlop uncut wet slicks. They are alli centre with hand spun outers.

The centres look the same as my old Morris Marina factory alloys.

The rears are the same as what my old man used to have on his Gordon clubbie. It was originally built by Gordon Dobie- I think he used the same wheels on most of his clubbies. But theyre not road legal (we looked into it) Clubbies are awseome off the mark, head and shoulders above anything else I have driven. dad's was A12 powered (bored to 1300) + twin 45 dellorto's and 380 kg with oil and 10L of fuel, so 450 kg with me in it..... Went like stink in first and second gear, but the Bigger capacity cars started to catch up after that......not much torque out of the A12!!! 4.5kg/kw is good numbers though

The wheels centers are Gordon Dobbie's I like them but they are a bugger to use.

Yeah, we had hassles with tyres going down.... real pain in the ar$e.

Just did a search and found Gordon's Dobie's site.... turns out my dad's old clubman is one of the feature cars. The pic is of it in its original bodywork and paint, but it has had two bodywork changes since then- Last I saw it still had full length sidepods and a nosecone that covered the front half of the front wheels.

Strange, the random things you find on the net

I no the Guy who has it now. I'm afraid it's in a sad state. Although the guy gave me a one piece glass rear end for my thing which I am resurecting.

If it is the same car, then the one piece glass thing will be rounded sidepods that start just behind the upper front wishbones and flow up into a large flat back tray that was designed to provide a bit of downforce... but probably just creates drag! (from the days before wings were allowed). The bottom of the sidepods are alloy tray that stay attached to the car, and the pods bolt up to them with Zuss fasteners. The left hand sidepod has had a rough and ready repair job (me aged 17 the weekend before the next meeting) done on it from where another car drove up it and onto the bonnet. I helped my old man build this bodywork back in the early 90's, specifically for the Gordon..... If yours is not the same dimensions and angles you will have a hell of a time trying to get it to fit.

There should have been a full set of moulds that came with the car, so resurrecting it all should be easy. The car was immaculate for the first time in its recent history when dad sold it (didnt get much for it either) so it would be sad to see it run into the ground.

Edit: Memory is dodgy.... LH damage was from a minor oil fire in the sidepod..... I spilled some oil in there and was a slack bastard and didnt fully wipe it all out, it volatolised with the heat of the day and the exhaust and reached flashpoint (or a backfire perhaps) Anyway, it just burned itself out, without causing any damage except to that sidepod. I'm pretty sure it was the other side that had a car go over the top of it.

I have some pics of the car but haven't figured out how to post them here.

Yeah I havent worked that one out yet either- If you chuck them in your photo album I should be able to find them. I'm keen to find what has happened to it.

I put a photo up under my handle let me no what you think.

Happy to say that that's definatley not the car. Looks like it could well be a gordon of the same design, I think there were six made in total.

Difficult cars to drive- the engine is set a long way back and there was a geometry problem in the four link rear end which made them real twitchy. With the original setup when one rear corner was loaded up and the other in droop, the incorrect geometry would try and twist the diff housing...... once that was redesigned it was a bit easier to drive.
