Sorry to hear that. It is going around for sure. So I have 17" AR Torque Thrusts and am trying to get a good size tire for front and rear. I love the look you have going and am trying to get enough sidewalls and width so they fill up the wheel well and don't look like a rubber band. Thanks for your help.

Update......Back on the ground after 5 months....Doing the shake Down!

Oh what a joy.....to have the car back in running form!!! I finally got to do a shake down
cruise this weekend....Ok...I ran 3 tank fulls thru it in about 5 hours!! So....I had to add the Summit
racing vac pump....to get the vac I needed for the power brakes. Nice unit...will pull about 25-27 Hg!
Also....Finally installed my Fuel pressure and Vac gage bracket.....Looks great. Here's some pics....In them
You'll see the oil filter relocation kit, Fuel and Vac gages, Holley Billet Carb, entire Poaer brake system, Remote
clutch res, Billet Hood Hinges.....and more. I'm still making all the Billet Brakets for all the braided lines...I just
tied them up with zip ties for now....Looks cheezy I know!

Yeah....I had hoped to do the electric fan mod.....but I'm out of cash for this year.
Its time to hunt down a fan shroud and run that till I can gather some more funds
for this winters fun! You have one my friend?

Update.....Still working thru my shake down drive, Punch list as well as stereo sys.

So,
Waiting on some parts from my shake down drive punch list....and decided to rework the stereo
system. Since i had the consol out...I started with it. The head unit in the car was ok...So I left it alone.
Gona install:
- JL Audio C3-525 (5.250 Diam) Speaker in the consol
- JL Audio C2-690TX ( 6 x 9) in the rear Deck
- JL Audio XD 700/5 (5 Channel) AMP
So....Plumbed the consol and Had to make some Speaker Adapters to properly place the speakers
in the existing holes.....Adapters look like this:

I'll update with consol shots soon!
