Nice car but a set of Rushforth's would make it look killer.

Your car's too big for 17s in front. 18s and 19s! When do you want me to come up?

I wish we were big enough to get that kind of saturation! Don't worry, we're too small to get played out but I appreciate the sentiment!

Here's a close up of a Trooper which is similar in design and identical in lug recess and cap detail.

Hey Ron, Here are a couple of pics of my '68 with the Rushforth Troopers. They have the new black diamond finish and get compliments everywhere I go.
Good luck in your wheel search!
