I had some of those wheel covers on my shoebox Vert before and they weren’t even close to working. The wheel offset was wrong for them to work.

With no port separation, I have to think some type of compressor or other odd use.
I never run a front plate on mine in Illinois, I have never been stopped for it. I think the cops understand how bad a front plate looks. I also...
I didn’t even know they made hotrod Ford beam style axles, I wouldn’t use one of those. We use their midget and sprint car axles. When we need...
