3 piece Fuchs. 17x 8 and 10s. 6 inch back space front and rear. The fronts had added back space for future Big Reds. With stock brakes maybe .5 less bs required on the fronts. I like to have a little extra bs, then use thin spacers to locate the rim for minimum inner and out fender clearances. Oil lines rerouted, spring plate bolts shaved, front shock dust covers removed, fenders rolled and about -3 camber front and rear. Tires, Toyo RA-1 235/40 and 275/40.
I envy the guy that can get a footing on the slope, I can't.

Footing? What is this that you speak of?

Thanks for the specs, Ted. That's good info.

Beautiful car! It deserves a repost. Speed Yellow is one of my favorite colors.

Did you get them in RSR look (anodized?) from Lindsey or did you take them somewhere else to be anodized? Lindsey doesn't seem to have a list price for that look..

EW,

The deal is currently in the works and I did learn alot about the car by dropping the motor myself. Can't wait to start the winter project once this deal is finished.

Heres my work in progress. I bought the 99% rust free 71 body from the Pelican classifieds and I put all of the drivetrain from a wrecked 84 Carrera into it. The 3.2 is new with some nice mods. and it really makes this car fly. It's time to take the car back apart and send the tub to be dry stripped. I'm going to paint it orange.
