Did anyone see that beige Torino at the CC Nats with the 17" steelies? It was in CC a couple issues back.

this car jeff?

Nice to see another Ford guy here on the site.

That's the car I was talking about!
I want those 17" wheels with my stock dog dish hubcaps.
10" wide rears and 8 or 9" fronts. I'm not really a Ford guy, I've been accused of being a Caddy guy, I'm just a different guy.

There is the understatement of the year and I know that the year has just started

Here's a couple versions of the rendering

**V8TV** · #17 01-28-2007, 08:37 AM

That's a cool project, Jeff. I dig both versions, actually. Good thing wheels and tires are easy to change based on your mood!

Like we talked about, there are lots of oddball Fords out there that would make killer projects.

Like these '67 Mercurys -

Or these '67 Galaxies -

Or for something really bizarre and cool, try these old '60 Mercs -

wow

could start a whole new trend with those....
i tell you what though..take one full power tour trip and realize how much difference the extra space makes ...
love to see "different" rides come together

The muted color looks great! Both wheel combos work well, I'm just partial to the sleeper-ness of the dog dishes

Yea, I couldn't believe that 67 Merc vert in CA you showed me on ebay. Couldn't get a single bid of $500.
