That was a killer deal! Hope I see it around.
Not sure. I've personally never seen one wider than 7", and 15" in any width are pretty hard to come by.
Drag Mags are basically a 10 spoke; i.e. note “hollow” main spoke. Indy 500 Speed Wheels are 5 spoke (note solid black painted area between...
I'm adding @Tom davison and his vast knowledge of '60s KC area car stuff/
Mr. Eibner's '32 was rightfully the star of the Des Moines show in 1956. Pages posted by Stephen Day on FB. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
don’t go ‘round hungry
I’d sure like to see the rest of this car.
The spindle mount fronts appear to be American 12 spokes, yes magnesium. Rears, I’m guessing US Indy but could be Ansen/Western or any number of...
The infamous Rod and Custom “beater” issue will be 50 years old later this year. All depends on one’s definition of the term I guess. [ATTACH]
Bump with a fresh 15x10. [IMG]
Looking GOOD!
I like the way the car sits and looks now! And the pinkish wheels should go great with the brown. Although I really liked the gold wheels on this...
I dig wagons and that Plymouth woody 20 seconds in is cool! Shortly followed by a Plymouth Suburban headed the other way. Not as exciting as...
Check with member @titus I’ll bet he knows.
Yep one of the best actors ever, and for me Paris, Texas occupies some of the same headspace as Two Lane Blacktop, slow does not equal boring.

You've got some great looking trucks Rusty, they have that "let's in jump and and GO" look.
Such a great looking car, I'd sure like to see this "lurid shade of lavender"!
That red coupe sure sits a lot like yours, but it seems unlikely to me that someone would have gotten rid of the louvered hood and matching...
I know we are here for the Fairlane, but damn I love watching those Cortinas hanging tough!
Got a fresh stack of centers stamped, 5x5.5 (pre-49 Ford, Ford 1/2 ton up to '96) and 4x4.5 (Falcon, Corvair, F-85, Tempest, Datsun, etc.) Get 'em...
Timeless answer to the question, "What is a Hot Rod?"
That thing is so wicked! And seeing it parked by the Orange Crate! I thought Squeak was getting ready to do a refresh on it. Hope it ends up in...
Man that sounds cool! Any photos of it around before it got ruined?
So damn sweet! And another vote for fixing what's needed and keeping it as is!
Saw one of the Instagram videos, and to say that it was disappointing is an understatement. From folks that from appearances should know better,...
