    Well I found these tires for 50 dollars and I had gotten the wheels for free. Just some old steel wheels and I cleaned them up and painted them black. The tires are in good shape and I think they cleaned up well. I like the results. My 40 looks right to me with this tire and wheel combo, and since the other tires are the tires that have been on the car since 1980 I think they are a bit safer and a hell of alot better on the road. So what do you all think of the difference???

    looks a lot better, with the old wheels it looked like a wanna be street rod, now it looks like a hot rod!

    Now all I need is some hub caps and lower the front about 3-4 inches.
