Click the red X with mouse right button, then to properties and copy the link to your browser adress bar. That way I could see the pics...

Wow, I would never put those rims on ANY car! Plus, I don't think I've EVER seen a vette in the ghetto.

look a little closer, the whole front is a 68-69 it just has a bolt on you can order from ecklers which makes it look like an 80-82.

Last time I saw a set of those wheels and tires the "Munkey Carlo" Was slammed to the boards and had a hydrolic jumper in the front with dingle ***** in the windows and fuzzy dice. Cholo heaven! It was playing Carlos Santanna on the thumper bumper stereo, My favorite!
