Can we get you to do some pictures and a story so it can be the feature car at the top of the page?
I would be honored, thank you for asking. Weather is not too conducive to pictures right now but supposed to brighten up next week just before Christmas so Ill pull her out of garage for some pics. Im also off between Christmas and New Years giving me some time to write a quick story.
Thanks, wasn't sure about them at first but theyre growing on me. They sort of remind me of the Pontiac Rally wheels on Firebirds etc. and being 17s and 45 series tires help the handling but are surprisingly compliant.

Would that timing work?
Todd does the story, so I hope he sees this and responds.
Sure looks like a nice car...

For sure, haven't stopped smiling yet Im always browsing and it just popped up! I think Ill just enjoy her for now, she drive real nice on the short 15 minute drive home but probably front discs and maybe tubular control arms while apart is all I can think of for now?
What's been done to the suspension and steering, to work with the big boots? I'm going with a RideTech tubular control arm/coilover set up on my '66, but it's only running 16s with 60 profile tires. Even now, with the original suspension still under it, the turning circle is in the "give me 40 acres, and I'll turn this rig around" range.
