Seeing those GT's on there is the reason why I keep on holding onto mine!!! Every now and then I trip over them and think about getting rid of them..but pics like that makes me put up with tripping over them.

What are the wheel/tire packages?

(LOVE them dog dish caps! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] ) </div></div>

yep deep water blue with blue bench seat interior..

I have the original 14 steels and it has 15 inchers in the picture...
L-78-15 up front on 6 inch wheels and in the back I took a pair of 8&quot; vette Rallys,cut the centers out and welded in a pair of 'stock' non-rally ceners so I'd have an 8 inch rim for the cheater slicks 28 inch h
Hoosiers...

for the G/T's ..you could only EVER get them 14 or 15 by SIX...

So I restored a nice pair for the front with 7.75 Vette Red
Lines and took another pair of G/T's for the rear..sent those out and had them cut the wheel apart near the inside bead and welded in an 1 1/2 section making the rears 7 1/2 wide for the Hoosiers...I had a pair of ancient Racemasters on it for a while and it look ultra-fabulous with the gennies on.

The Race Masters are going the Russ Dunmire car on chrome slots as it was originally raced...

Yes, Bieber Shifters, Doylestown, Pa. 20 minutes from me and 20 minutes from the old Hurst. Those were the days!

i dont have the IQ to figure out how it works.
what was the advantage of using one?

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 
good question! I think you just pulled the levers straight and not in an H pattern for faster shifts. maybe one lever for first/second the other for 3rd/4th? Would assume the instruction sheet has the answer to that question BUT never used on. I just remember they used to have these set up on the transmissions in the local speed shops in our area. WOW, has time flown by!

Jim, that is exactly what I want to do with another set of G/Ts I own. Can you tell me where you had your wheels modified?

I had work done here: http://weldcraftwheels.com/

I was pleased with the quality, price and quick turn around.
