Title: Got some new wheels and I think they definitely improve the look. Post by: Jos on March 21, 2010, 04:44:45 am One of the local guys here in Southern Ohio put up a set of OG Sprint Stars w/ caps for the whopping price of $75 last week so naturally I called dibs as fast as possible. Not only were all the wheels straight but they even had great tires. So I stripped the paint off of the two that were painted and put some 135s on the front and here they are. It's no show car, but it's my daily driver so I can only do so much at a time. anyways....here's the before and after.

Originally I was going to leave them all chrome for this season and then when I switched back to winter wheels I was going to paint them but I think I'll end up painting them in the next week or two.

Post by: Jos on March 22, 2010, 00:41:51 am Yeah Neil yours look great especially with the widened rears. I've always admired your car. I'm sure I've got at least a dozen pics of it floating on my HD. Great example of a '68
