Bad94: Just send them to me!

JButlr: That's f'd up man. What's missing from that picture is the stripper we picked up that can't be seen as she's "working".

Thanks for all the compliments on the car. Tim, we will be doing some big brakes on the car. Baer debuted their new big 4 piston at SEMA, and we plan to use it. I'm having a hard time finding a stock spindle for this car, everyone has their freakin drop spindles for it, but no stockers. I've been working with Mark at SC&C and from what it sounds like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.

No comments on the "Rushforth Wheels" pinstripe on the wheel lips yet... I'm surprised. I thought for sure someone would have something to say about those. I wanted to draw more attention to where the tire and the wheel lip meet to brake up all the black.

original used or new stock spindle or stock fitting with improved geometry (ats)?

i actually thought i saw a stripe on the wheels, but i guess it really wasnt showing up to well on my monitor. i like that idea though.

I thought rear wheels have rushforth on the side, but a real nice job you guys did there.

I'd take original used. I can blast it and powder coat it. That would be fine.

Trust me that would only happen in IRVINE (front license plate) did three other cop cars show up too? I have to laugh, I lived in Irvine for a few years, and they would pull someone over for a blinker violation and 4 other squads would show up! .... but it was voted safest city in america a time or two!

cool car btw, looks like the rear wheel caught a little curb rash, ouch!

Its not curb rash, its a sticker along the outer lip of the wheel that says Rushforth wheels.

It's funny they get you for that, but fail to write you for no wipers or side view mirrors. Seems petty but hey they have very little crime in Irvine. I think it was voted "Safest Big City for the fourth year in a row". Maybe the cops are that good or maybe it's all the smart foreigner's going to UCI

jon - ive got my stock 70 spindles, just not sure if theyll work on that 67. i may have another buyer lined up though.

Irvine is not as safe as they say. ive been on TC's were they claim that they are not in their jurisdiction, especially if its a dui or doa. ive also seen them tell our arson investigators that its their opinion that the fire wasnt arson, but rather an electrical issue. they try REALLY hard.
