New year, new look
 
3 Attachment(s)
Pulled the trigger on a set of Yearone Rally II's with Conti Extreme contact shoes. While I was at it, also threw on new cryo treated Stoptech slotted/drilled rotors front and rear with Hawk HPS + pads. Back in the spring I converted from power assist to manual with a Wilwood master. Manual brakes work so much better than the boosted with only 11" vac. I know can achieve wheel lock on all four wheels which was never possible in the past.

Happy New year to everyone & hope to see you this summer at POCI in Tulsa.

would have never thought you could get that kind of stopping power with manual brakes, good to hear.

That's a good looking ride. I've had those YO wheels on my shopping list for a while now.

That is a beautiful car. I put the Year One wheels on my 67 a few years back. I like them because you can still have enough sidewall so they look almost normal! They have held up very well. I took this picture on Christmas day 2019. I let my son, who was visiting from Arizona, drive it. It was his first time and his first time to go 100 mph!

Wow those are cool. What size are the wheels/tires?

SRR 01-16-2020 02:47 PM

Looks great, perfect balance of tire and rim.
