Right on, well hopefully you get to enjoy it sooner than later

What are you thinking for wheels on this one? Do they need to be larger diameter to clear the brakes?

Steel artillery wheels -- painted / powdercoated in a contrasting color..... Bigs and little style.... hoping to get away with 17's and 16's -- but I don't know that CHRA has looked at the brakes and rotor sizes yet to determine the offset and all of that stuff.

I know they'll have to massage the front wheel opening to get me some turn radius AND some stance! I had The Roadster Shop build that chassis with a 1" longer wheelbase ---- so that will push that front tire into the wheel lip. They'll have to cut to cure! LOL

Greg, that's gonna look so damn awesome too. I love those wheels. Please tell me yours will have the baby moon in the middle.....please.....?

Thats a terrible pic but that's not a baby moon. Looks to be a 46-48 Ford cap. Baby moons are the plain,ugly caps that come on PepBoys chrome reverse wheels that retail for 38 bucks a piece....

Greg, I know you said steel artillery. The cast center and billet center Artillery wheels from WheelSmith have a much better look than the stamped ones. Just my unsolicited opinion.

With adapter to run small cap.

With large cap in 17/18.

Salt Flat wheels wouldn't look bad either.
