----I had a set of 14&quot; chrome-reversed wheels on my grandfathers 64 Chevelle convert about a month after he bought it new. Had the bullet centers and the combo looked great at the time. I still like chrome-reversed for a real period look. Believe it or not he never noticed the change. Wasnt much of a gearhead, LOL!......Bill S

I think this is the ultimate day2 look and it's exactly how I did it back in the day. Either blackened steelies or chrome reverse out back and cragars or torque thrusts up front. I did this on a few cars and get a mixed review from strangers.....some ask why, or "can't you afford new wheels" or they just simply stare in appreciations.

Black steelies are the current idea, large C6 brakes will negate 15s.

Car won’t be as low as example in photo

Picked up the chassis from powder coating. We’ll start assembling rear gear and suspension.

Need Bruce to help me figure why these photos show up sideways 🙁
