I like the old shoes better myself....but brakes are pretty important. I would hate to see you fold up that virgin old car.

My vote: Billet rallyes with enough room to clear the brakes. And +1 on the stealth turbo'd LSx. Total sleeper combination.

Me too I like the stealthy look, but the newer wheels don't look bad either.

I say put a set of 15x8 corvette ralleys with dog dishes on it. Keep it on the down low! Nice spindles. You guys do great work.

15" dog dish...

"I was tired of giving people 7-8 car lengths in the Grandpa-mobile so that I could stop safely with the manual drums"

I love that. I had a 71 Ford Bronco that was manual drums all around. I had a punk ass kid in a Honda dart over at the last minute pulling up to a red light. It had just started raining and I mashed the brakes even harder and locked up the rears, the old Bronco pitched its tail out and in my best drifting move went around the Honda on the side of the road.....Needless to say, I ordered the disc brake conversion when I got home.
