That didn't take long for a comment on the rusty rotors. Don't worry my friend they will be all shinny real quick on Tuesday.

I can't wait to see your car in person, You've done some amazing work on it... Very high level of attention to detail...

There was thread started a few days ago about rusty rotors, thats where the comment came from... There were comments about spraying WD 40 and silicone and all kinds of stuff on em, hells bells, just drive it...

Was that a commander Cody (or bill kirchen) reference I heard (read)? You might give a Hot Rod Lincoln a run for it's money!

Can we say Bogart's

Well strike the Bogarts and skinnies off the wish list. Just closed the deal for a complete set of 17" Bogarts C/W skinnies and Hoosier slicks. Pumpkin is off to the alignment this morning.

The Bogart's do. 100 thou clearance between caliper and rim. BIG $$$ for the rims though. Pumpkin will fly this year at Friday Night Street Legals.

Now I will have to knock those siily weights of the front calipers. That puts the second set of RS wheels and DR's up for sale. Just waht you need.
