Stock sized Cragar S/S is what'll go on the ride when I have time to run them down, and new rubber.   Been so busy I haven't even been over to the lockup to see the car for about 3 weeks though.   Will worry about it when it cools off some and is more enjoyable to be outside.

Is that your final answer?
Excellent choice, Larry. I bet it looks great. I'm havin' flashbacks just thinkin' about it!(after all, the '70s were very good to me!)



btw.... are the rims that are on it now new, or do they look like they've been on it for a few years? Might be worth saving/hangin' on to them if they're "oldies", even if they do look a little (no offense)goofy.

They look brand new condition wise, but then the gent that had it before me really took good care of it.   Only way to tell would be to pull them I guess.   Have no idea of their vintage - can't even remember what the cap has on it (Modern maybe?).   They are nice wheels, just out of place on this ride, especially with the paint job (and no I am not offended - I don't like them on this cruiser either).   The Cragar's or Ansen Sprints is the ticket for this ride - don't care for their clones either.

Now I'm looking for a 69/70 BB to get wild with since I really can't do much to this one with all the matching numbers and all...   More trouble coming - I know.
