2899521 Is Done

Chris,

Very nicely done!

Alan your right. American Racing. I like the beefy look. They say they are two piece and painted gray. But other sites say it's one piece. What happened to the old mag (magnisium) wheels? The only thing might not like would be to see through rear wheel at hub. Don't like these big wheels you can see through to a tiny disk or brake drum. Fronts would be okay with big rotors. Back not sure. I'll have to look for some at the next cruise in here in town.

Be proud Chris, you did one primo job Like the wheels too.... but I'm a little biased, got em on the black one

Very nice car. Your 289 FIA looks great with no stripe and the five-spoke wheels.

How do you like the Kirkey Vintage seat? The fit in the car appears good. Comfortable? Anything special needed for the mounts?

Chris;
Great looking car. I have the Torque Thrust D's on my truck and a 17" variation on my car. Word to the wise: put a coat of wax on those wheels ASAP or you'll get the dreaded "black spots" !!

Thanks fellas! Sorry it took me so long to respond, I've been on vacation this past week.

They are Torq Thrust Originals....I chose them for the vintage look, and because they fit pin-drive width axles on the car. (someday I may do sunburst halibrands.) It takes a spacer to get them to fit the way I want, but they're pretty close even without the spacer.

I got them from the TireRack 3-4 years or so ago. I don't have the part numbers, but here's the description from the invoices:

15x7 ARV Torq-Thrust Original LT GR ML
15x8.5 5-475 et-24 arv torq

FWIW, the tires are Indy Firehawks, and I like 'em a lot.

Alan-

Bandage actually wasn't a snake bite, but that does look just like a victim's bandage, eh?!

Best!
Chris
