Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

So I have been working on wiring and finely got my wheels mounted. I end up going with the new American Racing Torque Thrust II smooth lip. Here's a few pictures as the journey continues.

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

I love everything you've done. Very nice.

What size wheels did you finally end up with? Earlier you said 18's and 20's...

Do you still have the stock inner fenders on all the corners?

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

Thanks everyone!

Zoomin, I ended up with 18X8's upfront and 20X10's in the rear. I did nothing to the fenders.

I rolled in out Sunday to clean the garage out and took a few more pics.

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

That looks so sweet! I'm really leaning towards 18's and 20's on my 40 Ford. I really like how the wheels blend into your car and don't over power the look!
