Title: BBT Sprint Stars
Post by: RichardinNZ on July 26, 2011, 21:22:06 pm
I want to price up some BBT Sprint Stars for my new '58. I'll have the usual 4 1/2 front and 5 1/2 rear combo, but can anyone confirm what offset I need front and rear?  I'm likely to be using EMPI dropped spindles with stock drums, however there is a chance I'll use adjusters instead.   
Thanks

Richard

The '49 looks great; I'd not seen it painted!  Shame about the front end of the '67.

I'll be pricing up the Sprint Stars and see how the shipping stacks up...it's a long way for them to come. 

Tell your brother that it's been very cold in Christchurch this week....he may need some warm clothes (althopugh spring is only a few weeks off!).  PM me if he has any questions about the move (I'm down there about every other week and have colleagues there).

Thanks
Richard
