    Looks great!! Any rear tire rub when you make a turn up a sharp grade? Looks like it might be close...

    Oh, I think my '85 takes me back to about 19 years old... especially when you crack open the Secondaries and my silly 225/60/15s get all wiggly!

    Like you say, not all the creature features of the newer cars, but good unrefined fun.

    Thanks for posting the pics!

    I think I am good in the front even though it looks close. It I do a "Steve McQueen" high speed marathon on rough uneven roads it might rub. The rear is clear of the wheel wells but I might get some rubbing on the quad shocks. Those 9" puppys are kind of wide for an old PONY!

    Don - you need to bring your car down to next year's PVGP in Schenley Park. The same goes for everyone here on SCS. I'll be there running the American car show, and something tells me gpfarrell will be there too! Great time and tons of amazing rides of all varieties!
