Portawalls on my 67, installed by previous owner. At first I wasn't sure about them, but they have grown on me. Might even do portawalls again if I put Mooneyes wheels on next year (but thinking redlines probably).
cheers

Nice, what tires are these?
(Size/Ratio? Coker / brand?, Bias Ply or Radial?, real whitewall vs insert?, etc)
Where did you get the painted hub caps?
Thanks!!
Manuel

A flux capacitor is my next upgrade. I'll have to adjust it to fire off at 58MPH instead of 88MPH though.

Nice ride. I used to run those on my 60' and it was even worse when it was windy while driving on the freeway. |
