Rafman - dang that vert looks sharp !

Some modern wheels seem kinda out of place on older cars to me but those look very nice :coolphotos:

Disco brakes LMAO -- I actually survived the disco years. I had my big shoes , bell-bottems , Puffy sleeved shirts and actually got a perm once. I even used to sing along with Donna Summer :shhh:

That was a job that I did in California for a customer, wheels and disc brakes, several years back, Corvair still on the road. I know the wheels on my 64 are a little too flashy, even for me, I don't know what I was thinking, a little too much bling-bling... I like them better in my 64 Coupe. I am waiting for a new set of wheels to replace the ones in my convertible, as you know, sometimes it's hard to pick the right one, especially from a photo, I am gonna try a different set, I think it's gonna look much better, and it's going to go with the car. How about posting some more pix of your ride ? New topic: 65 wheels 17 ****disco brakes, LOL..... :eek: alright, man, peace out !

Yeah those chrome jobby's that were on the on the red vert aren't my style, but that's ok. They are someones style or they wouldn't exist. ::-):
My wheels were not my first choice but they were cheap so I got them. The first set I bought were too wide, except seeing Tony's car with those new wheels of his on I guess I could have made them work.

Those wheels..are the exact wheels I put on my wife's Scion tC. :tu:


and someday ..I'll be talking to you about getting DISCO brakes on my car too! I hear you are "the man" to talk to about them!
