    Hi Rick, I know you said you didn't want to fix those wheels, but a good machine shop could fab you up some good steel inserts and press em in after they tidy the holes up, they look to good for junk, love the sound of the new mufflers

    • @TheRickfix
      @TheRickfix  Před 9 lety

      Scott Best thankx scott,i dont think i got the heart to throw the wheels out so i might look into getting them fixed,the actual wheels themselves r in good shape,just going to find a good set to get me rolling with me arm out the window,lol,tc

  • @RedWhiteAndBlueVideo
    @RedWhiteAndBlueVideo Před 9 lety +1

    I really think a set of Torq-thrusts would be the wheel for that car.
    Someone else mentioned Cragar/SS. Those would look nice too.
    Sounds Good with the Thrush Mufflers.

    • @TheRickfix
      @TheRickfix  Před 9 lety

    Shame about the wheels. Sometimes the lug nuts are a bit too long on the shoulder. You think they are tight but have really bottomed out on the drum. Loose on the wheel.
