Well It looks like we are gonna go with the Cragar's I did think of going with the other rims, you know to kinda change, things a little, but you guy's are right the Cragar's go with the body and the mild aggresiveness, of the whole car, thank's every one who made there opinion known....

Ok guys I channeld Crystal Blue, I dont know If you can tell it or not, and set the front end to the ground, so low In fact the A-frame will scrape the skin off an ant,, now I'm thinking It needs more channeling, It's channeld so much now the frame sit's 3/16" inside the body, but I dont know so I'm asking you guy's, more? or leave It alone? no I'm not looking for a drag truck look, just something that would be a wild nasty thing to drive, look...

HMMMMMM, I'm thinking In the rear?
