Interesting. On there website it looks like they used bigger wheels for mock up. Maybe those centers aren't welded onto those hoops. Thanks for the pics.

So, after hearing "one more week" for about 3 months on the engine for my 59, I towed that heap down to the shop so I could get back to work on the Brougham.

What did I do? Pretty much nothing. Well, I did clean out the garage and get the car back on the lift, which requires the use of a winch because my driveway isn't flat.

Aside from that, what's better than getting a pretty 2 piece carbon fiber driveshaft in the mail? Putting it up in the car to see that it fits perfectly.

Thanks to DSS!!!

Great clearance everywhere, just need to build a heat shield above the exhaust.
