Default Out with the old

Out with the old and in with the new....The wheels arrived and they have found a new home. While I would just rate them an 8 out of 10, they look much better than the old ones, and HFR has already flushed out the fact that I am extremely picky. The new tires, center caps and lug nuts help a lot as well. Now we just need to get the exhaust finished (correct head pipes arrived today), get the gas tank on, and then take it out for Burn Out Part II. I can't wait. The current plan is to drive it for a while and then this fall yank the engine, re-seal and re-paint it, clean under the hood, and maybe do a little engine tweaking. I'm looking forward to the "drive it for awhile" phase...

Here's some pictures.

There's nothing like a lift and bridge jacks





The old wheels





The new wheels - everything is clocked...
