Just got a few more pics.

A couple are of the redline tires. JC said the wheels are Weld brand. Appears to be the common 8-hole wheels. We'll have to wait to see how he attached the caps.

He'll probably chime in when he reads this. If not, I'll ask.

I think I do remember him saying that it was fairly easy, and they seemed to stick real good.

I ask because I was looking at those myself and would be curious to hear from someone that's actually used them.

Hi Greg, the tire stickers are pretty simple to apply. I would apply them with the tire on the wheel. I used a protractor and drew a line around the tire where I wanted one edge to be. Then applied along that edge. If a raised letter is in the way use a dremel or or other to sand down.

The nitto 555s are available with a redline but the Mickey's sr's are not. Not a lot out there in a front redline skinny rated for any amount of speed.

Default Stickers

Greg, the stickers came from
Www.tredwear.com
Sorry, I remember looking at both tire stickers and the tredwear was less expensive. It was a mad thrash trying get this car going to make the local annual show. Reminds me of the corney shows on the tube of making a deadline😬.
The protractor did not come with the kit.

Did a drop base dominator and two factory air cleaners welded together so could run a 4" tall filter.

Took cars to area chevy show. Still some details and work to be done on the black car. Almost as much fun as beating the chevies at the track. Very bright and hot Saturday......that's clouds, not spots in the hood of the black car.

I still think it would be cool to put some "ET" stickers on that...do you have any more pics of the car?

Can't help but notice that for me, even sitting next to a Judge ragtop, it steals the scene.

Greg, a slick black car will get the looks over most colors but a pita to keep clean.
That body style with the suttle curves shows in black well too . We pretty much wiped the whole car with filler and filled the lower front and rear quarters /rear lower fenders. Makes it look slicker over stock in my opinion.

I wouldn't even think about it where I live... a never-maintained dirt road. I do admire them in black though.
