The 1962 wheels are reversed, to take the deep dish 1962 hubcaps. Cool, maybe the 1962 drums will swap out on the 1960 brakes & spindles. I will...
BTT. Any Cadillac guys out there?
1962 hubcaps will not work on 1960 wheels. The 1962 hubcaps are shaped to deep for the 1960 wheels. I believe 1962-1964 wheels are the same, and...

Good Morning Grinder!! I am going to get my ass out in the garage, and start welding on my shoebox. I just need to stop staring at Sweats'...
