AdreView Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hoping to in near future! They're 15s, look small though don't they? Haha i just like more meat on my wheels the rear end looks badass though 265s on there. They do look to be 14's...any pics of the rear end or a level side shot? How much metal did you have to cut from the arches to fit those under the flares? Quote Link to comment

speedgato Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Are those metal or glassed in flares? They are metal. That car is coming apart this weekend. I am installing a full cage. I'm probably going to paint her too. Quote Link to comment

I'm wondering why you didn't remove the rear bumper finisher....I'm undecided if I should remove mine along with the bumper or leave it like you did. Unfortunately the spot welds where it meets the body is showing signs of surface rust....deicsions...decisions. Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately the spot welds where it meets the body is showing signs of surface rust....deicsions...decisions. The exact look i wanted. haha! I'm still torn between that too! IMO it kinda sets the rear end off when you look at it from the side... to each their own i guess. I do want to eventually shave the rear though. Sleeker look but for now. I like how this looks.

mr_miles Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 New member, figure I'd start by posting a pic of the car. This is shortly after the primer was layed on. hopefully the weather will warm up just long enough for me to paint it....but probably not until spring. It's a 77 280. Waiting on some OT to open up at work so i can buy the front lip and rear wing. eventually I'll bondo the few tiny dents. but for now, primer she is! Quote Link to comment
