Did you have to roll the fenders?

 

[87gn2]

didn't feel the need for such monsters...and I don't want rubbing problems. at all. used to have 235s front, 255s rear and they rubbed. plus I went 215s on the front for more front/rear contrast, rather than 225s.

also, they were cheaper E-3's dont make THAT much money, ya know!

I have that size on my coupe and no rolling was involved.

That is going to be a nice looking car. Different and nice. The wheel/tire situation will work out............it takes time.

Re

Hey what kind of hood is that??

 

[El Jefe]

87gn2: where did you get the spacers and what size did you go with?

 

[A67auto]

The hood looks like it is from Mustangs Plus in Stockton.

 

[nds03]

sorry to change topic, but how did you get those gauges to fit in the dash like that

nevermind, thought it was a 65

 

[87gn2]

The hood is from Mustangs Plus, it's the "ram-jet" style. Since it was a new design when I bought it, the fiberglass was molded really well (no old fiberglass mold that's changed over the years) and it bolted right on and aligns as good/better than I could hope.

The dash is completely custom, it's aircraft aluminum with a carbon fiber applique (read-sticker). It looks awesome, especially at night.

The spacers I got on Ebay, I think the vendor was called Wheel Works. Excellent service and an excellent product. I ordered the spacers on the 19th and they were made and shipped and arrived here the 23rd.

Similar idea Bullit 17's

I just reaciently also bought a set of Bullit rims off a 03'-04' Gt mustang. I friend of mine had ordered them off e bay then put them on his car, then he sold the car bought a 70 Cuda and i wound up with them. Did you have any troubles fitting the rims on. I know on my 67' they dont fit. Is there anything else you have to say about them. Also i have the same tire sizes in Goodyear, and i was just wondering how you felt they were on the highway.

Thanx 67cody

are those hood pins mounting in place of the hood bumpers on the little bracket off the radiator support?
