im discusted with old guy purists
These cars were meant to be modified!!! God why did the factory produce performance parts, wheels, or even crate engines! It is so annoying when people think they are all high and mighty because they have the money do to a frame off resto and rub it in everyone's face because it is now "original" and over 100k is in. I am gonna make it however I want to and if someone has to say, it's their problem, I like some 17" torq thrust M's...no one (besides my dad maybe) will prevent me from buying these rims. They are slick looking and even my dad thought so (he really doesn't like big rims either).
For example, my dad bought his 69' RR brand new :). It came with a 383, now how fun is that...after he wrecked it in 70' (took off the whole passengers side, and had it fixed...costed more than the car new lol) he put a crate 440 6 pack motor in it! It hasn't been on the road since 71' and he dragged it until 78' when the track in CT closed. These cars were made to be modified, not to be fluffed and buffed. They were meant to take abuse! My dad had to put sub frame connectors because the doors started not to close LOL, it was launching so hard! He eventually got it down to 10.96 in like 75' or so.
