Careless Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Stony, it must be giving you quite the head-ache if you got a bottle of meds sitting atop the car, always in close reach. try an ice cold Canadian beer, it works better!

stony Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 My new wheels have arrived. the offset will let me use stock wheel openings Fuel cell is done.... waiting on door bar swing out parts to come in currently back order.

stony Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Well the car is home again. Now i have to make time to start finishing her up Im going to wait till i get the wheelbase where it needs to be and 1/4 replaced before i say the wheel offset is too shallow. But i think they may need a small spacer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_hunt Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Yeah, a 4 inch spacer looks like what you need. How did you come up with that track width in the rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 NAaa it wont be that big. its kinda deceiving with the angle and the 1/4 cut up. but we will see. the tire are a lot smaller then what it had. An inch is all it should need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getoffmyinternet Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 SH! Don't talk like that. We should start a stony fund Also, if low 9s was your previous record you should be able to at least get into the 8s now! Or as rob would say, easy 9s to easy 8s. Either way it's gonna be sick. And that's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I just give you the money for a pack of office-depot knock-off sharpies (hey, 12 in a box for 5 bucks!), and you then write my name in bubble letters on both sides???
