I am sure I saw this car parked up at Blyton this year, looked a very nice resto job. Can you remember seeing it there Goff?

I would be interested to know what the rims on it are from.
You need a lot of positive offset for these cars to prevent the tyre tread at the front from sticking out beyond the guards (illegal in some countries)
For e.g. +45 will just work with 155 wide tyres. (factory rims are +60)
Also the PCD needs to be 4.5" (114.3mm)

Nice photo's - thanks for putting them up

They look like Revolution RFX wheels to me.
