Very nice. I don't care for the B&M shifter though. They are a pain in the butt to use.

i like it,the only things i would change would be the wheels like you said and a different steering wheel.You have a stock/restomod thing there going on and it clashes styles.

But it nice

I personally think the Torq Thrust always have look they need,maybe a grey center??.Im burned out on the Eleanor wheels,even though they do look good.

Your car looks great!! It screams musclecar.
If you want bigger rubber, I would stay with the Torq Thrust style wheels and get some 17's. While I like the old look of smaller wheels and tall rubber on musclecars, I am really into the larger wheels with shorter ratio rubber now. Just don't get too big (20's) or too blingy. Some 275/40 rear and some 245/45 front sounds nice to me. Check out Dodgestang's wheel chart for fitment.

Yer car looks very nice, I would go 17s or 18s, I kinda wish I went 18s now, and with something different then v45s, seems like everyone has a bullitt style wheel so its not as unique as it was.
