i really like the polyglass gt's but am also considering M/T drag radials. If you put drag radials on the back what do you use on the front ?

Very nice!  That crate full of metal sure looks juicy  :drool:  I love the pics of the paint drying rack, that is such a basic restoration necessity and whatever form it takes, we've all had one.  Car is looking good  :thumbsup:
