That's too bad about the wheels Greg.




But I might have found your missing rake.

You can just have a smaller dia made for the front.

I'm sure Shawn Dove would be happy... er, willing to cut you a set of wheels that have Weld logo spokes. You could even get a set of matching Weld logo center caps.

oh, and I might add, the suspension is looking nice under the car!

I was told to wait to make a judgement until I see the car tomorrow....

By the way -- the reason I did the little bit of 'bling' in the wheel was to tie into the polished stainless lake style header... The wheel in all "cast look" didn't tie into anything else on the car - and maybe I made a mistake not just doing them all polished. But I'll hold my final judgement until we get it all together.

Greg I dunno...I think those fronts won't look as "big" in diameter, once you have the grille shell, and the rest of the "stuff" on the front of the car, to kind of establish the profile.
