    thanks Shainerman, I am considering going with a set of Supremes on my 51 chevy. those would work great on the rear but do not think a full reverse will work on the front. (my rearend is narrow than stock). may have to go with a 6 reverse or 7 standard on the front.

    (was checking out the Los Bvlds board on the supreme thread but could not find info on the various offsets available.)

    I had mine custom made. Went through Coys (Old School Wheel) told them what they were going on, how much drop i was doing, etc. Easy to work with and relatively cheap, i was happy. I paid a little under 600 shipped to my door with valve stems, lugs, washers, everything. I felt it was worth it to KNOW they would fit and look right. I had 14x7 supremes on my old 53 chevy. I couldve fit reversed in the front no problem, not the rear, so if your rear end is more narrow, i say go for it. 14x6 reversed just to be safe. Heres my old one:

    Hey nice shot. I never realized how much I liked that model until now.

    Here's another Olds I really like (& want badly)

    Los Saint's car show in Yuma, Arizona circa 1980. I believe this one was held at the fairgrounds.

    I know @srs1! Its probably why in the caption that they list his name as "Player" from El Centro! I also noticed its a four door with suicide rear doors.

    I wish I had more pictures of it! But, if anybody knows of a four door fleetline that's owned by a gentleman that goes by the name, "Player" in El Centro let us know.

    Here's a few more from the local lowrider scene in Yuma. These are from the Los Saint's show they held on Main Street, downtown in 1979.
