Well yes but even then 13s a bit small don't you think, 14s would be better. No i got no hub caps, i do have some devon 16s and they are ford stud spacings. but was keeping them in case i ever wanted to use them on the Devon, but i suppose they could go at the Right money or barter.. |

That sounds like a plan be good amount of logs there. Not sure you will definitely need them this year the weather is a little odd to say the least, one min it looks like its winter here then its warm then spring showers. Its all over the place.

Got to agree with Mr North on the wheel size Mike.
13s would be awfully small on the front. O.K on a modern car, but these older jobbies were designed for bigger wheels &, in my very humble opinion, look a bit out of proportion if you go too small.
If it helps, I've got 15s on the front of my truck & 16s on the back.
I know they'd cost you 200 quid +, but wouldn't it be easier just to buy new steel "Smoothies" for it?
