I should have my Rushforth Rated X Wheels in 6-8 weeks Ordered them in all black. I've been a fan of these wheels for a long time.

I liked it before you tore it apart. Can't wait to see what you do with it this time around. Out of curiosity,why didn't you just sell it and start with another Elco?:thumbsup:

Thanks! I thought about selling it but no one would have paid me for what I had into it. I rather take a loss and keep the car. Then to take a loss and to try to find another one with a straight body. If I had the space I would have kept it and built another one. I was actually able to bless one of my car club members with my old drivetrain (he's a hard worker and has been dealing with a bunch of crap lately) which made it all worth it.
