Am I seeing something in that last pic, or do those rear wheels have about 10deg of negative camber? 
Great natural scenery and beautiful machine you've got there too!

10? Degrees Neg. Camber? What exactly are you on Heath? 
Actually, I picked up the Rangie engine last week and was chatting to my engine bloke (who races a turbo bluebird) about the Commy Racer. He was telling me you can bend a salisbury 1 degree and alter rear axle toe-in 1mm and it will have no ill effects.

Not Too keen on the Flares, but otherwise it looks great!
Any idea what that center console is out of? I like the wheels too similar to what I'm getting.
