Re: front wheel arch

Coomers.

Most replica body moulds were lifted from original "handbuilt" cars of at least 30 years of age. Some, or most, of which had suffered some sort of accident damage which, was not, or indeed could be, jigged back into shape as modern cars can be Normally this descrepancy shows up in the rear arches, But on yours it obviously shows on the front.

Re: front wheel arch

Enclosed picture of my Sumo build, the picture shows the discrepency, thats about the best you will get, If yours is a lot worse, you should be able to get as near as it shows in the picture with a bit of pushing and shoving. :thumb: :thumb:
