Thanks everyone. It has been a a journey to get to this point for sure. I just can't thank the Justice League (Jim, Kent, Andy and Bob) enough. Because without them speaking up this project would not have moved forward. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Looking great there guys... Now lets get that six back together. Was the main wiring a NOS part or a Kroon wire harness ? |

It is an NOS harness. I was very lucky to get that and I believe it may have been the first part I bought for my car. That alone should make reassembly a lot smoother.

Today was a cool day. My brother and I drove up to Oroville to meet with Harvey Weidman and pick up my wheels. So first I plug in his address in the Navigation and look at the time we were showing for arrival! Good omen? I think so. Now look at the wheels and tires. I am telling you Harvey is the best; I know why he gets wheels sent to him from all over the world. By the way these are deep sixes, widened 1" on the back side with barrels Harvey has made. Then we wrapped them in Yokohama 205/55R 15 tires. I can't wait to put one on the car and see how they look. Enjoy this wheel porn:

Super clean and the tires are great to save the wheels if there is a scrape accident.

My 185/70s days may be numbered. Always did like the way my car drove on 205/55... |

I believe so. Not sure how much smaller. I would have preferred to stay with a stock height tire- it's just very hard to find a decent tire for 15"x7" wheels.

For what you paid and your limited choices, it all looks good. If the "perfect" tire becomes available, find a set of cookies for these tires. Never hurts to have a second set of wheels.

In DOT summer tires thread wear 200 , 15's have a really good tire selection , much better that 16's....I get reasonable wear out of them , with track like traction...reasonable is subjective of course....
