90 wings compatible to the series 3 ????????????????????????

<< < (2/3) > >>

muddyweb:
The 90 wings should fit on a Series 3, you'll need to change the radiator panel, etc. for the full effect.  It won't be quite as strong as the front end of the 90 unless you do a little fabrication as the slam panel of the 90 bolts down to the front crossmember.

Changing the bonnet is an easy job with the grille done, but the screen is a whole other job.  You can't just fit a 90 windscreen to a Series motor as the top of the screen and way it connects to the roof are totally different.

Many of the 1 piece screens you see on Series vehicles are just a replacement glass section with the centre bar removed.

The 90 windscreen is around 1.5 - 2" taller than a Series screen, so it still doesn't look quite right from the front.


I'm fairly sure that Series wings won't fit on a coiler due to the inner wings being different to accomodate the front turrets.  Whether the Series outer wing would fit on it's own I'm not sure.

hobbit:
doors backwards were 2a, with a 2a tub and hard top on it, so rear arches were original

muddyweb:
That's a good point actually... the wheel arch cut outs are a totally different shape.

If you put the full 90 wing on there, you really need to wheel arch spats on it, else there is a great big gap between the inner and outer wings.....

That said, if you have a Series 3, you are used to great big gaps  :lol:

Axle:
Once you have the 90 front end on will it accept the 90 bullbars available for them  :?:  :?:  :?:  :?:

muddyweb:
The Bullbar normally fits to the chassis, so should be independant of the bodywork.  You *should* be able to fit one, as the bumper mountings are similar.
