For lunch today - autocross wheels!

[Kemo]

So im wanting to go to autocross but I dont want to ding up my RUF wheels or bust up the Dunlops. The general consensus was to find a cheap set of wheels to dedicate to track use. I found a set of 15" phone dials that should do the trick. The wheels were at Leather Menders in Austin and I decided to take a trip over lunch to purchase. What I found there was an interesting scene.





There was a very well done 1969 E currently there for interior work. Signal Green. It was a little dusty, but you could tell it was a quality paint job. Straight and narrow.

and then...



These seats were just redyed to bring back the color and fix the scuffs. I thought they were brand new. I had no idea that you could redye a leather seat and make it look that good.

I got to talking with Paul, hes the owner, seemed like a real standup guy.

finally...




so I got these wheels as my first step to getting on the track! Interesting lunch for me, thats for sure...
