I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Just found out recently that they are Motoform Circ wheels. They are 17x8" and my quarters dont like them very much. The lips are already rolled but I think Im going to throw the roller back on and try to get some more room.

These wheels have more miles in transport than they do on a car since the SHO community has had them.

Wheels have been from Massachusetts to St Louis to Massachusetts to St Louis.

I bought them for $300 with tires. Since I knew they were going to rub and I had a chance to buy some other wheels I liked they went up for sale while in MA. I was just going to sell them from there, no one told they guy bringing them to me so they just showed up. Decided to throw them on since I had them... big mistake. Im going to make them work, I dont want to sell them anymore.

By Mid-Spring the only chrome/polished  areas will be the fender emblems and the antenna only because I have no way around them.

I love my Grandma cars.
I rolled out my quarters tonight and got things a little better but not totally happy yet

My buddy's Grandpa ( near mine too) worked at Ford for 34 yrs buffing cars, that is who helped me. He makes it all look so easy.


That guy wouldn't happen to be named Rodney by any chance, would he?

:rollin:

St Louis SHO bought that, I just picked it up.

Speaking of buying I might have a Gen I for you. PM me your budget and what not.
