didn't think I'd like it...

Nate Nagel 10 April 2005 01:07:09
 threw the wheels from my '62 on the '55 today just to get some fresh
tires under it. I didn't think I'd like the look, but it's actually
working for me.

 Hard to believe my high bid on that car was $6200. Why they listed it
with the grills, bumpers and taillight housings not mounted is beyond
me. N8 may drop two grand in the car before it's where he wants it to
be, but I'd buy it back for 8 in heartbeat. <g>

 I like the look Nate. It looks like a 50s hot rod. I particularly like that
body style, the sedan over the hardtop. Are ya gonna do center caps and red
lines?

I actually have the correct vacuum plated plastic center caps for the
rears, I don't want to put them on because they cost more than the wheels!!!

 Nate, I like the looks !!! ( Sure, I am a bit biassed due to some
"55-addiction" ) -- 15 inch would be better than 14 -- I have
215x75x15 all around on my 55 President coupe. They fill the wheel
wells quite nicely ... I will also have to find new wheels as I am
putting on the Turner discs in a few weeks. Your solution with those
"vintage" slots could be a way to go for me as well... I have a set
around as well. And I would keep the low stance ... I will do some
modest cutting on the front coils on mine ... Will post a pic when that
is all completed at the end of next month.

 Nate,

I like that a lot, but your 62 looks so sad in the background;)
