Looks sick! Love the wheels and old-school look. Specs on wheels/tires?

Interior looks awesome. When is the re-spray happening?

Thanks again Paul for the T-Bars :thumbs:

The wheels are custom made, I had to out-do myself, I couldn't just put wheels on it that anybody could buy after having a custom set before. While they may appear like Porsche 356 wheel replicas, they are highly modified. At first glance you might miss the details of these wheels, kind of like with my old rear wheels people might overlook that fact that they were widened with a casual glance. The fronts are 16X6 and the rear are 16X7 with reverse-offset. Yup, they're 16's now! And if you look closely, there are 10 brake adjusting holes instead of 5, so the holes are symmetric on each side of the lug nuts. The hubcap clips are also deleted. They are finished in powder coating a vintage gray/silver. Tires are 195-45-16 in front and 205-50-16 in the rear. Yokahama S-Drives front and rear. Because of the low profile, the 205s in the rear have a wider tread than my old 215s. With all that rubber for a 1600 lb car, it handles like it's on rails now!
