For somebody that is partially red-green-blue color blind, that color difference from the booth to the garage sure is striking!  Does it have some transitional color once its outside?  In one shot you could see on the rear spoiler the more 'orange' vs the red.

Likewise, if anybody wants to give up their stuff, I'm also 36, and I plan to be around for a while.  I will say the cost scares a bunch of people away. Personal example: I need to get a new transmission console for the Cyclone (which shares with the Fairlane).  Never re-popped, and they go for ~1k.  1k for a piece of molded 1960's plastic.  I haven't ran into anyone who doesn't think I'm crazy paying that price.

Thanks Heo,

He's going to hang onto the originals. They ended up not being a split rim, but that trim ring is what holds that bead in. Split rims I always though were a bit different.

He did talk with Stockton Wheel and is going that route. They'd also cut out and re-weld the centers to another size if he wanted. But for now, he's going to most likely go up to a size 16" wheel in the same pattern.

Howdy all,

A buddy has an old trailer and it has 15" split rims, 5x8" bolt pattern, 3/4" lug. He wants to dump the split rims but he's having a heck of a time finding anything with that lug spacing. My thought is to find some used wheels but I dont know where to look. Any suggestions? He's located in the Sacramento Area.

Did anything factory come with that lug spacing?

Thanks in advance
Joe

KY works well too.  You basically need a couplant to give the soundwave a path to travel through.

Kevin,
Thanks for this!  This is sure a heck of a lot cheaper than the $1,000 units I was looking at earlier.  Looks like Santa came early for me!

Joe

Agreed.  Confidential markings on documents can get the poster into deep shizer.  And it gives the lawyers something to prosecute against.

Cool!  With so many indy car fans, I'll be sure to post some pictures from the Monterey Historics week after next.
