Re: 198Plus build

I have the same wheels for my '69 Charger but in 18". They are sweet and the price is right!

Re: 198Plus build

Wow! Just finished reading this EPIC thread!!
It was quite the cliffhanger but it looks like all the grief and money will turn out quite a show truck!

Ronnie,
I live in Snellville and a friend of mine from Sunday School years ago (Ken Weilbrenner) used to have the shop next door to yours (Southern Automotive).

I can't wait to get started on my 61 rust bucket that I recently bought from a friend in Grayson!

You have inspired me but also have sobered me to the fact that it's going to take a lot of work and probably more years than it took you!

Take care!
Tony
