    Thanks guys.

    I love the other wheels too. You just dont recognize the spinners on them in the photos. In person the flatness disappears with the shiny spinners in place.

                Partly as a footrest, but also in turns it gives you a way to brace yourself. I find in curves in the vic I'm putting a worrying amount of pressure on the door panel. This way you can be more comfortable because you just plant your left foot on the dead pedal.

                  That car looks proper! If we could only change one of the POTM photos. You must have attracted a lot of attention driving that car last week.

                    Thanks Jacob. And yes. I do have a lot of people whipping their heads around to check it out. It is awesome. The best is around town where I could be cruising at 35 or so, slam on the gas drop the tranny to first and let the exhaust roar as I pull away. Really puts a smile on my face. I am just glad she isn't the daily driver anymore. I don't want to much attention that things begin missing off of her.

                      Thing looks great, very muscular!!!! I say the Bullits kickass! They may be used a lot but thats doesnt change the fact that they are tough looking wheels. Makes you car look very aggresive like a muscle car I am planning on some Torq-Thrust D's and RWL tires for my 87 once I get the motor swapped.
