    Thanks fellas! Yea, I'm keeping this car for sure. After the race it's getting blown apart and fine tuned.

    Rears are 750-16
    Fronts are model A 19"

    The 750's are about 3 inches taller than the 19's

    Grenading a tranny is better than blowing one, especially on the beach in front of so many people...

    ----Isn't that the "fun" part?? ( haha).
    Car looks ready to rumble, Boss!!- This is going to be a BLAST for sure; nice job getting the old girl back on line.
    Oh, and the Pope called and said to wish you luck ( he lost your number). He's also very interested in the 100 virgins- said there's 2 in Italy if we run short.

    Pete do you have to number the passenger door? Are you going to put sand bags in the right side of the trunk to get traction? Do you have a wiper blade attached to clear your vision from white shorts?

    Haha..... White shorts!!

    Yes, both doors need to be numbered, I'll do that Friday night at the hotel...

    White shorts..... It's worth the price of admission.
