You ever find out?
I got the wheels off ebay and are not available anymore, well at least the exact set I bought.

These are the tires.

Well after a few years of tinkering with this $75 CL find I finally got around to finishing it. Haven’t worked in 6 weeks and won’t be back till at least May 18th.


Day I picked it up.


Paint removal


Primed


Primed and painted Rustoleum Gloss Apple Red


Center cap I made for the steering wheel


Jackshaft, spindles, pedals etc getting ready to clean up and paint


Rims going from white to black. Still have the originals but wanted something new and not bent up.


Got the inspiration of color scheme from a Nintendo I did years ago. Wanted the Apple Red with Flat black accents.












Motor is a new Hemi Predator
Billet flywheel and connecting rod from ARC
Governor removed
Black Mamba Cam from Isky
Filter and open exhaust
ARC top plate
26lb valve springs
Carb is S/A bored out .675 with jet replaced


New torque converter driver and 6” driven


Waiting for the upholstery shop down the block to open up so they can recreate the seat cushion.
What T/C did you use? What length was the belt you used? Looks like you still used the original jack shaft with the driven mounted on it.
