looking good.

someone is bound to come up with the old chestnut

'youve put the steering wheel on the wrong side!' - so I wont.....

Notice you got clamshells. Thing they tend to give front end lift at high speed? Used to like clamshells - prefer cycle wings now. My car wont have either!

Steve, If I could get a RHD Rack over here there would be no question, it would be RHD. My Mini is RHD, my Series 2a LR is RHD, it is only natural that the 7 should be too. It is not too late, any body got a rack I can borrow for a real long time?

I know the clamshells aren't as effecient as the cycle wings, but I like the style. I will probably change them out at some point.

David:

You have front steer spindles. Take a front wheel drive car that uses rear steer spindles and flip the rack over.

Stick something on the sides and it'll look finished David. Does it use the MGB rack as well as running gear? You could take one back as hand luggage .
