14X7 with 3 1/2” backspace and 15X8 1/2 with 5” backspace. The 14’s fit the discs thank goodness. But the backs will not work. But! I have a 68 Barracuda. They will work there for sure. I also have StuBBle. He has biiiiiiig hips. 15X7 with 4 1/2” backspace would be perfect back here.

That looks very nice! Ya the 73 Duster has a 15/16 too. I think that’s what I put in Rex the Scamp. That and 7/8 wheel cylinders in the back is a good combo. Brad was saying the other day how good it stopped! I’m surprised he used brakes. I’ll do the rear cylinders when I do the 8 3/4. But...

Thanks Tom. You know I am happy! As for the other green, the color does not make it run like a scalded dog! But I'm fairly certain yours will the way it sounds!

The easiest, but bravest, crime to commit is in broad daylight. If people see something like this happening, there is very little chance it would be questioned, unless they are or know the owner. It would appear to be a legitimate process. "Nobody would be that brave" is the common assumption.

I had to move stuff around the shop today. The Coronet got about a quarter inch of dust rinsed off of it! I thought this was a pretty cool shot.

Ubolts are bigger too.

I'm the odd one. Most desire the tin grill. I prefer this look much better. It is more refined and matches the body nicely. Those are sweet trucks.

Shock mounts. Drive shaft length.

You know where I am and what I was raised on! It was stubbys back then though.

First trip…… beer run! Oh ya, confirmed the dual wheel peel!

Very nice!

LOL, that would be something to see! With Rob's primer grey 68 it will be "One of these things doesn't belong here....."

Thanks Randy. I am super happy with it and definitely the not working on it part is huge! It's like 4mulas said about patch the floor and drive it. That is such a frickin' bonus. I agree with you and I'm leaning that way on the brakes too. It really is large space taker. I think I'll just go...

This will be the first big change, but not for a bit. It will cease motion with manual drums for a while. I’m not committed to the booster, but discs will be on there.

Done deal! Legit for cruising. The girl at the registry even grabbed the 68 plate out of the pile! Gotta love Hagerty too. Great pricing on insurance.

Looks great. If I learned one thing doing mine, it was to start all jobs on the passenger side! Learn there. :)

Liked. Agreed. Too wide on the edges. I get the support part.

LOL, I checked them yesterday by hitting the throttle hard on my maiden test drive. Just a 318.........for now. ;)

Inspection passed without a glitch! Tomorrow insurance and registration. Woo hooooooo!

Welcome back. The ignore button betters my personal well being!

From a member with a credible standing..............

And this is the bullshit part of it all. **** him. Have read many a thread about that name. As many bad as OK. That's enough to tell all he is not worth dealing with.

I'll be happy to be able to make it to the grocery store! It takes 9 seconds just to get out of the car.

Stuff definitely is not made the same anymore! Had a visitor today. :)

Paint imperfections, couple little scratches, a few small rock chips and Uncanny is a prefect driver!

I got too lazy to shift a 4 speed many years, in fact decades, back. Been there, done that. Driving is fun. What were once tickets have turned into suspensions! It ain't what it used to be! But there is nothing like rolling down the road in a classic......whatever you have , and seeing the...

Uncanny has a birth certificate! Not a lot of luxury’s. He was born into a low income family. He never even got to listen to music while he played. But they were proud of their new baby and gave him all the love he deserved.

And it still works….. :rofl:

Thanks all. I can't believe how "green" has grown on me! It just looks good. As for the heads, the covers were glued on when they put the engine together! So, I'll wait until the inspection is done, drive it a bit and then maybe yank the covers. For now, I'll be wondering.

I just used this “wafer board” I had kicking around. It’s only 1/8” thick. If I was to go buy some I would probably go thicker. But it feels pretty good.
