    BTW, I'm pretty confused. MP Brakes promised that their disc brake sets clears 15" wheels. Well, front is OK but rear brakes doesn't clear 15" Rallye Wheels :villagers: What now?? Maybe Vintage Wheel Works V40 or...???

    Problem solved. What do think about my new wheels....:roflsmiley:

    That has got to be about the cleanest restoration I have ever seen. I know you are making a stroker engine but I still call it a restoration not restomod. That is going to be an eye scorcher when you roll it out.   :burnout:

    Steering column installed. I have Woodgrain and Rim Blow, but I quess that my choice is something smaller like XV Motorsport steering wheel or red tuff wheel.

    By the way. What is the cost of Rim Blow restoration?

    I got the wheels and tires;
    Front 7x15, 235/60-15 BFG
    Back 8.5x15, 275/60-15 BFG

    I want some RACE -look and instead of center cups I'll use flat plates.

    I can't wait my AAR -style stripes and side exhaust.
