I actually ran/run 15" wheels up front (thinking of a change once my paint job is finished)...the newer American Sprints. My rear wheels are vintage Ansen Sprints that are 16x12s. I run the older Western 2" drop spindle with the Wilwood 6 piston calipers. I think CPP now offers their modular spindle set up for all levels of Wilwood and Baer front brake systems. If I had to do it today, I would go that route for the bigger type of front brakes. I had to engineer mine, cut off the OE caliper mount ears, and design and machine my own caliper brackets.

I don't do bodywork...I don't have that level of patience. I will section and modify a fender in a heartbeat, but will not do the finish body stuff.
