Perhaps you would like the wheels better if you removed the chrome fender moldings? The shiny moldings flowed with the old wheels better.

I agree they went better with the other rims but I still think match pretty good with the chrome in the molding. That and the other wheels shining so much is why it's such a big change for me.

Here's my heap. My wife's grandpa bought this car brand new back in 83. I ended up with it a few years ago, and we've been working on turning it into a drag car. Please don't beat me with a bat, but we're transplanting a 406 sbc in it because I already have all the parts for it from when I was building a Nova. Also planning a 4 link and tubbed, and 14x32 slick. But for now, here's the current progress.

:giggle: the main reason is I have NO ford parts at all. We mostly build chevy motors here, that's why I was building a Nova. But then this car came along and it meant a lot to my wife's family so I saved it from going to the s yard.

We did however poke around in the garage and found a set of tubular A-arms, coil overs and a 5 lug front set up, so this car is now going to be a full tube chassis car with a 4 link.

Sweetness.  Is the interior as clean?

Wasn't at first but yes, after a good vacuuming, and tomorrow gonna do carpet cleaner and then take some interior shots after I put seats back in, that's a long way of saying yes, also.. does anyone know if the bulbs in the dashboard cluster can be changed? My turn signal arrow for left doesn't light up.
