    Just put on some new wheels and tires on the Bel Air, I put 15x7 on front and 15x8 on the rear. Stuffed as much tire under the rear without changing the exhaust yet. I'm thinking of running the exhaust straight out the back. What do you think? Made the old 4 door look pretty good!

    yup yup.. lookin good. I agree with ditchin the window guards, and will add.. get rid of those door edge guards. Put on clear one's if you are worried about the doors, but man does that chrome strip ruin the flow. My caddy looked SOOO much smoother when I ditched em.
     
  5. Nice Marv!!! :) The wheels certainly highlight the red on that very straight 60!!!!

    yup.

    Slamming would be ideal, but at a minimum you should try and get the front down a little bit.

    The red drums are a nice touch.
