picked up a set of michelin 215/65/15 tires from the pnp yard. i first negotiated the price down $30 and then was able to use my frequent flyer discount of 20%. saved another $50. sweet!
i'll mount them on a set of chrome ssll rims i picked up last fall. some of the 76-77 cutlass and 77-79 delta 88's came with chrome 15x7 rally wheels. the centers were chrome with a beauty ring and an ugly center cap. i'll mount the tires and put them on the g-wagon with regular center caps.
pics to follow.
Did Olds go to the 4.75 bolt pattern for 77 Deltas? They had always been the 5"
yes, the "B" body cars (delta, caprice, impala, catalina, boneville, le sabre , etc) went to 5x4.75" bolt pattern in '77. except wagons and vehicles with heavy duty brakes were still 5x5".

Picked up a set of painted 15x7 Olds sports wheels

I think the chrome ones I picked up a little while ago may be a little to flashy for what I want.



Also my squirrel is acting weird....

So, this weekend my son and I took a little roadtrip.
Had to cross state lines to bootleg in some Craigslist goodness.
Left at 6:00AM, had to rent a truck as mine wasn't up to the 350 mile roundtrip (totaled last week).
Drove down and got this:

Get an offset ground 330 crank, and you'll really have something!
Probably a mild performance rebuild, not sure what the cam is in the motor yet.
Has custom pushrods (Howards Cams) to go with the rocker setup.
Came with mini Hi-Torque starter, P/S pump, water pump, Chrome Alternator and all the brackets too.
