Cool pic!

Looks almost like the left front tire wants to lift off the ground!  :thumbsup:

Sweet lookin ride. The mud flaps are probably a temporary type that can be put on and off to prevent potential paint chipping. :dunno: I have a set that i can do this with.

Not sure why but the rims really look like they fit the car. Some of the rims I've been seeing on the e-bodies are so big they make the car look like a matchbox car or something. I like the retro look, but I like the rims to fit the car too.

I agree! Those are 16x8" and backspacing is 4.5".

Nice AAR, from the looks of it he has enough room to go a few inches bigger on tyre size too.  :thumbsup:
