I'm guessing that would be me. Mines not a true GP but a Catalina with Grand Prix grilles. Your buddies car looks like it'll be smokin' when...
If I remember correctly, he fabbed all the one-off stuff himself... blower pulley, brake backing plates, and even the heads. I'll look around...
I shot the photos for that book. When they were compiling it I made it a point that they had to include that car. Before I met Dave I had...
Damn Nads. I'm really glad to know there's another car guy in the world that's even more pissed off at humanity than I am. At least you can...
Looks right on. So what tire size did you finally settle on for the front? Since I'm asking, what's the size of the rear also?
I would step down to a 205/75. It seems like spiltting hairs, but they will be slightly smaller in the right ways. Little details make for big...
Thank-you for that paintjob. I am now blind.
Why are black squirrels so much more badass than gray ones?
I would be more concerned with the stance of the car over wide vs skinny whites. Supremes can look really kickass with either type of...
These would be pretty hot on those ET five spokes: http://www.coker.com/store/customer/product.php?productid=16722&cat=&page=1
Big hell yeah!

A 60 Edsel is a very rare and strange creature. I'm really glad to see that you're giving it "the treatment" I don't think you could go wrong...
If I understand correctly, you want to make your 63 Buick into a 60s custom but don't want to use any of the wheel options that make a cool 60s...
Thanks PnBnr. That's a really cool chunk of info. I really dig the early Super Tachs too. The metal cup and the metal knob for the telltale...
Now I'm curious... Is yours like the one pictured in the ad, or the kind that has the words SUPER TACH on the face? I have a SST series 9000K...
That's one of my favorite shoebox Fords I kinda wish I didn't know it was up for grabs. I can add it to the list of cars that are for sale and...
If I remember correctly, the stand alone Super Tach came out around '66. Before that there were some tachs that looked similar but still...
I'll play... [IMG] [IMG]
I'm suprised he didn't charge you for that signature.
For the early to mid 70s look you're going for, 14" reversed Cragars would be a much better choice than Supremes.
I got that picture of the '65 from a mid-70s Peterson publication so Bellflower tips were around at least until then. I think they made it in some...
I just checked my '64 Almquist catalog and they're not in there. Figured that tidbit might help to narrow down the dates they were available.
I also love those wheels. I need a single 14x6 to complete my set so if anybody has one lying around I want it. PLEASE send me a PM if you can...
Hell yeah. Happy birthday Kevin. Hope you get to celebrate for the next two weeks.
3 to 4 weeks without Chili Phil is a month without wisdom, humor, and insight. Get well soon. Harry.
the best in the world
Even though yellow is my least favorite color, I'm also a huge fan of that '60. I snapped this one at Paso this year. [IMG]
I graduated with honors from a reasonably well respected photography department of a large university. During my time in school I was confronted...
