Default Need pics of 1st gen Camaro with flat face wheels

I have a 67 Camaro and was thinking about putting a wheel with no or minimal dish/lip on it. The car is not minitubbed and has standard width axles. Thought I would try something a little different and put on a TSW Donington, Nurburging, or Mugello - or something similiar. I was hoping someone has already went this route and/or had some pics that I can referrence before spending the money. Pics of a 1st gen Camaro would be awesome, but any older car would help too.
Any pics or advice would be great
Thanks

Here's a killer 69 with CCW's that have a minimal dish to them.

Blazen... tell me what your thinking? I am thinking a similiar setup and one thing you will see is lots of "vette" setups with huge spacers... Not a fan...
The car in the above link is the JRS R&D car.. that is more like what I am thinking... take a look at the "5K MUSTANG BUILD" that is more like what I am thinking,,

I am looking at these..

I keep going back to this type of wheel. I'm afraid it's one of those love it or hate it wheels. I can get this wheel with a close offset with very little spacer needed.

If I use a wheel with a dish - my max dish would be about 3.25 inches, which isn't very deep. So I though I would just change the look up and do something different.
