It looks good with the Cragars, but why the slicks?????

Hi Ron, I asked myself that very same question. Its not a drag car, or a pro stock, or anything like that. I'm a newbie doing cars. I think I will keep the rims and replace the tires with the kit ones. That should get it back to profile.

New pics on the way!! Steve

I did not mean to nit pick the slicks, but where I grew up, they were totally illegal and dangerous to use on the street. Now if it were a race car, even a part time one, they would work. By the way, the blackwalls work fine. I have a suggestion, try a full set of the raised white lettered tires, or a set of red lines. This build reminds me of my '67 Charger, as if the owner traded it in for the new model.

I do have several sets of red line tires coming with cragar rims, and raised painted on lettering from my brother.
