Wooooooow. This is the winner for today.
Got any pics of the station wagon wheels on your car?
What rear end is under your 54
Running reverse wheels in the rear only. I'm going for a staggered look
Link didn't work
My rear axle is 2" narrower than stock, so the reverse wheels should be just right
I will check that out
Going out in the garage tonight to measure. I will report back.
YES!!!! This is what I was looking for. Just curious, what rear end did you have in the 52(?) chevy?
[IMG] Bob, do you still have pics of this wheel reversed and dimensions of what the backspacing and offset ended up being? All of the image...
@squirrel Any input?
Love seeing full figured sedans as race cars.
I will most likely weld and grind the old valve stem hole closed and put it on the outside.
Guys, I would like to reverse the stock wheels on my 49 chevy coupe. If my math works out correctly I am confident reversing them will put the...
I'm glad I can help.
So I tend to jump around on my builds, cuz as we all know one thing effects 10 others, so before I continue on the exhaust I wanted to get the...

Thanks man. I'm doing the easy part! Didn't even have to fab the primaries...
I'm actually gonna use v band clamps. I hate exhaust leaks so I'm avoiding flanges.
Well I haven't posted in awhile, but I have a goal of at least driving it to Ventura in 7 months, so here's the passenger side header tacked up....
Man. You're motivating me. I haven't worked on mine in a few weeks. Good progress
Shorty camaro headers. If you go back a page or 2 on my thread I posted a screen grab of the headers from jegs website. It has all the info on it.
Haha thanks man
I took it into work to weld it up. I tacked it all together with a mig. One of the guys had his purge set up already out, so I figured why not....
Just curious. I laser cut my own on my 49 at work. I like the idea of just getting flat pieces and welding it up yourself
Did you buy the motor mount pieces or fab them?
