I've been dying to get these front wheels on for over a year. To many other things going on. Finally had time to do it.

jay6891 · 02-12-2004, 04:16 PM

Looks great, feels good to make progress. How bout some pics of the Oldsmoble 442 with the w-30 hood on it that I see in the back.

Primered_69 · 02-12-2004, 04:21 PM

what wheels are those exactly?

chevy garage · 02-12-2004, 06:21 PM

Thanks, I really like them on there. They are a set of old American Racing 200S.

The Cutlass was my first car. I've had it 16 years. Just built a long rod 406 and got it running last fall.

Nice wheels, are the backs 15X10? Where'd you get them at?

MrGoodpliers · 02-12-2004, 07:29 PM

I do believe that is the coolest stock-height ride I have seen. Love those daisies!

ChevyDude · 02-12-2004, 08:52 PM

American Daisies....had em' on a car I had back in the seventies!

tom hand · 02-12-2004, 09:16 PM

Nice rides...put the 406 in your truck...that Cutlass needs a 455

Blue Beard · 02-12-2004, 10:41 PM

Those style mags were also referred to as Coke Bottle...........

ChevyDude · 02-12-2004, 10:46 PM

Ok ..never heard that. If you were to order them through American Racing...they were called Daisies. I bought them in 1974. Don't know if they are being produced at present?

MR. GOODWRENCH · 02-13-2004, 01:07 AM

ChevyDude I have heard of them being called coke bottles,it is refuring to the spokes being in the shape of a coke bottle,they are not making the old style 200S like the ones on Marks(chevy garage)truck,they do make all polished aluminum 200S spokes and all are polished,I have a set of old style 200S myself I am putting on my truck,mine need to be cleaned up a little,most people blast the spokes to clean them up,I think I will leave mine alone,I like the spokes to be just a little gold,be the way,Mark the truck looks very good,I like it alot.

chevy garage · 02-13-2004, 03:21 PM

griesel72, the rears are 15x10's and the fronts are 15x8.5's. I bought them from a guy that had them at Super Chevy in Bristol.

Thanks for the compliments. Appreciate it Brad.
