it looks sick on a gp

just got done putting the front clip together and man its starting to look like a car again.

it was a really good day because I also got the gas gauge to work again.

another cool thing is I found someone to do the top for 375 thats parts and labor

I think its about time to get rid of the steel wheels and get some bf goodrich tires on those wheels

I wish they were a bit bigger but they were almost free so I cant complain

 

[maliburacinfreak]

they'll look great once you get some tires on them. id go with some 255/60s on rear and 235/60s front

 

[jamon8]

I just bought my tires last nite from tire rack

I went with 245/60 on the back thats the biggest tire I could find for 14 inch wheels
215/60 for the front

give it that race car look

 

[maliburacinfreak]

ah, i assumed they were 15s. that combo will look great on it

 

[jamon8]

I just got the a/c working and then put the wheels on and I am super excited about getting it put back together

the top is getting done on monday

 

[maliburacinfreak]

looks great man! you did a hell of a job on it
