    Being a fan of those cars anyway , I like it alot , and I like the skinny whites on the Cragars too , like the other guy said , not too big on that combo , but that lil gem of a ride pulls it off , good looking car.

    cragers are fine on your car.. survivor stuff.... you have cragers, or you can buy them under the money, run them.... most guys don't understand....................it looks great

    I'm not a big fan of Cragars, but they look ok on your car. I like the tail-draggin'.

    I like it. Think it looks good.
     
  19. Looks nice. I like that model Chevy. Used to borrow a fastback
    twodoor of that vintage from my uncle and cruise around.
     
  20. Of course I am biased. But..... some scallops would look perfect with those Cragars and that stance!! Todd

    Looks great, if you like the wheels keep em. Cragars are timeless in my opinion.
