Could not afford a new car...

...so a few months ago I picked up a used car that I have lusted after since I was a kid. It's a clone, but it seems solid and well done. Enjoy. And thanks for all the info I have picked up from the forums the last few months. Dave

Great car. I like the wheels. Nice thing about clones is you are free to change up/improve a few things.

That is a nice looking car and those wheels look like they belong there. Should be fun to drive!

Looks like a blast to drive. The minilites are a great touch. Congrats!

Thanks for the compliments and welcomes from everyone. I am very happy to be part of the group. Yes, I am very pleased with the look of those Superlite wheels. Had to replace the old tires anyway (good tread, 15 years old), so I decided to swap out the Rallye's for a more old school Trans Am look. The car actually drives pretty nice but it is noisy, unrefined, and reeks of gasoline just like a muscle car should. Keeps me on my toes, can't go on autopilot like a newer vehicle allows.

Thanks. TA Superlites from Classic Industries. Went with 15X7's with 235/60's on the front, 15x8's with 275/60's on the back. Using black chrome Gorilla lug nuts to hold them on.
