rally wheel appreciation + update
its been a month or two since i posted, so heres a quick update!
got some cool rally wheels and new exhaust. all i need now is to lower it! ordered a 3/5 drop springs off of speedway for a good price. hope during summer i can get it into epoxy primer and start doing some serious bodywork! |

Re: rally wheel appreciation + update
I've had them on about every Chevy I owned. I can think of at least 4 other cars I've had them on. I just love 'em.
