Haven't been posting much lately....picked this 79 up late this fall. Haven't had much time to really do anything with it, and now it's tarped and under a snow bank.

im liking that colum lock ya got there and also, nice sound system setup in the back, is that custom or can ya buy it at the store?
 
Thanks for comments. The system set up is custom. By buddy built it for me. He's about to build a couple more of my specs and post them on Ebay for sale. Some will be bare wood and others with vinyl. i spent like 200 total for the wood, plexi glass, sub box and vinyl. everywhere else they were trying to get me for 500+. No way.
 
I love the look of the 16" or even larger IROC wheels on the elcamino's....but I see listings labeling front wheels or rear wheels, I assume the offset or back spacing is different, what is needed to make them usable on our G-body's? Are any wheel spacers needed? Thanks, John
 
For the rear you will need 1/2" spacers so the wheel won't rub against the frame. For the front you'll need coil spacers and you are good to go. I have 22s and i don't think i'll go bigger because I like the ride and I can still smoke the tires easily.
 
I have a set of factory 16s on mine so I can't speak to the aftermarket IROCS but for the factory 15" & 16", the Fronts will bolt right up, Rears will need a spacer. If you can find two sets of Fronts, you'll be set.
