      Ol' Rock N' Roller

      Those wheels look nice Doug, but I am leaning torwards the TT II's, like 17 X 9, with salad shooter type threads. Kinda like I had on the HOT 80.

      I was thinkin about using my old IROC wheels that are in boxes in the basement. But then I pulled up this old photo of the 85 IROC and the HOT 80 side by side, and I think the IROC wheels are too small.
      What do you guys think?

        I like the Hot 80's wheels much better, by far.

        The IROC wheels are way to small. To much rubber showing on the sidewalls of the tire.

                                When i was there, at West Side Body Shop, today it looked like the El Camino's passenger Door was in Primer, He was sanding down on the Driver Door, And he had started doing a little sanding on the top of the hood.
