My 41 Dodge

What did you end up getting?
I'm sniffing around for some non weld wheels for the front...

 

[Neverdone]

Just matched the back. Wheel Vintique Smoothies, 15x6, 215/70 Radial T/A's. Just about the same size tire as what is on the front now. Got a little less backspace to widen out the front just a hair, will help some with turning since now if turned short enough it will hit some stuff.

 

[Dirtyrat]

Mind if I ask where you bought them and how much you paid?

 

[Neverdone]

Special Delivery!!! [cl

Sitting at home when I got there!

Now need to get some paint on them, the valves in, and wait . I just got info that the tires I ordered monday, just shipped yesterday .

 

[Dirtyrat]

Eh, you need time to paint them and let them dry anyhow...

Going olive drab or another color? They look cool, and now you see how they are different than the ones I linked you =)

 

[Neverdone]

Going olive drab or another color?

Satin black to match the back.

And I am a very impatient person. When I order something I want it yesterday. I wanted to put them on on Tuesday, Fedex says I wont have the tires until Wednesday.

Found a spare motor, I think this is what you have

Can I keep it at your house?? I am out of space.....

 

[Dirtyrat]

Heh... I dunno about that, I've just started getting more room to work in the garage!

 

[Neverdone]

Wheels painted, now if I can just get my rubbers.............

 

[Old Iron]

I used to be the same way, seemed like the parts would never get here, as the older I got the less impatient I became and seemed like they would arrive quicker.

 

[Neverdone]

I have never been a patient person..........

 

[Neverdone]

Yup so wheels are painted, flush valve stems installed............... STILL NO TIRES!!!! NOW THE TIRES AREN'T DUE IN UNTIL FRIDAY SOMETIME!!! Not sure I am going to get a chance to put them on this week and that really pi$$es me off!

Upside I started modifying my valve cover, just another one of those added touches ya know.

[Neverdone]

Hooray!!!! They finally showed up!! on saturday when I couldn't go get them mounted and balanced...........

Hope to get them mounted up and put on probably thursday. Then I will sit her back on the ground so I can see how it looks!!! Can't wait!

 

[Dirtyrat]

[Neverdone]

[Old Iron]

Dang it, I'm gonna be gone from Wednesday to the following Monday. Guess I'll just have to wait to see them mounted and on the car a week from tomorrow.
Now I'm getting impatient [ddd
