No Ari. I posted a link to an e-bay ad last week for a single wheel. I'll see if I can find a pic. You'll recognise them the moment you see them.

I still reckon they would be the go for your car if you could get a decent set together. Granted, they're only 14's but that sits well with 60's cars.

Yeah, I'm trying to decide whether I want to restore it or modify it.
I thought I wanted to restore it, but now I dunno.
Its young me vs slightly older me.

Mate, there's always the middle ground. I've had a hankering to restore another early car, but fit it out with modern engine, trans, suspension, brakes etc. Retain the original appearance but gain modern safety, comfort and economy. I've actually thought about an HD because no one likes them, with a four cylinder diesel, six speed auto, fully independent suspension, 4 wheels discs etc. The problem is, the only engine/trans combo like that I can think of is Beemer/Merc in a RWD configuration. I think Audi is either FWD or AWD, so that's out. Whichever I chose, very exxy.

If I do modify it.
It will get VT brakes, and a warm motor. Quiet probably a VN diff. And a tubular front end, Chassis connector kit and a nice 300-350hp 318 mated to a T5.
There is not going to be any aesthetic modifications. That's sacrilege.
