Lets see your wheels ...
Ok so I have now sent the old Crager SS's to Rat Rod Heaven and now the 71 has no shoes! I have looked at the torque thrust 2 option but its been done to death not that I'm opposed to them just trying to find that look, as are we all.
The 71 is a custom with a clamshell front end I would appreciate if you could post your pics to see what else there is ... thanks.

Nice!
I had ET Turbines on my first '80. Almost identical to the Westerns. I loved them.
