Sorry..... just thinking out loud.
It's not that Mark Grimes, He lives here in town. He will have some projects coming out soon tho....

Nice car. I wonder if the owner is a member here but never posts. These comments would be a great way to welcome them to the board...

Hello Tracy, What's Mark been workin' on? I haven't talked to him in a while. I know he has a Chevelle and an Impala, not sure what else he's working on.

Michael.

I thought, could be wrong, the whole point of the huge wheels was to make the car look ridiculous. Its also too low imo. I like lowered but people always have to take things to the extreme. Also adds to the ridiculous factor I suppose. EXREMELY NICE BODY and I love Firebirds.

It can be fixed! lol

Whether I like them or don't like them, my income depends on them, so with that in mind, I guess I am glad that whole "big wheel" thing hasn't totally played out. Roll on!

Different strokes for different folks, if everyone had same taste the world would be a boring place and I'm sure these boards wouldn't exist, cause everyone would drive stock car with stock 14"s

Not a fan of the wheels but I can appreciate the work it took to get it to this point...

The car was built for the owner by Jason"Blinky" Grimes a very accomplished hot rod builder from Louisville..


Thanks for the kind words on the photos we get to work with some amazing builders/owners who do alot of hard work to make us look good.....they deserve all the credit.
