Is it ok to mount the spare on front of watercooled?

Anyone know if it's a stupid idea to mount the spare wheel on the front of my 1983 1.9 petrol engined watercooled hi-top? Wondered about air flow. If it's not that stupid does anyone know where I can get the bracket?

Cheers,

Stu

He's replacing the engine with a Vege recon and as he's done it a few bits and bobs have needed changing. One thing that he's phoned me up wi...
