Lookin'Good Pritch!
dig them wheels.
Got any engine pics?

I like those wheels, too. I would like them a whole lot more if I could get all the clear-coat off of them. Some has come off, about half overall I'd say. I wish I knew what brand they are, so I could get some center caps for them.

Here's my motor. It's a 250 block from '75 that some P/O thoughtfully put in a 230 crank and pistons, one of which was broken when I got it. Now, it's rebuilt-I guess it is a 230-and runs great!

That's an easy one...they are factory Chev/GMC alum. My '90 Suburban has the same wheels and if I'm not mistaken the same centre caps from rally wheels should fit.
