72GTVA, sorry.. I do get a little testy in my old age For me, I like creative ideas, I don't care if they are mine or someone else... I just like creative ideas
We all appreciate your input. BB was once a smart guy, but he smoked it all away. That is why he finds the fact that it works to be irrelevant. You are building stuff, it works. Don't let the ankle biters get you down.
I've spent the last few weeks combing through Craigslist for some 4 lug, 13"x5.5" Cragars that would fit my little Ranchero. I finally found them in PA, where the owner was going to take them in for scrap metal before a friend listed them on Craigslist. It took a day cleaning but I'm really a happy camper
I forgot to mention in the picture above all of the windows have been tinted (including the windshield) with Llumar Air Blue 80..... I think that stuffs amazing! The window don't really look like they are tinted but on a hot day when I get in with the windows up.... it not bad at all. I do the same thing with my volvo (which was dealer tinted) and I have to leave the door open for a few minutes before I'm willing to get in..... I guess that just another reason I should drive the Ranchero
Another thing I forgot to mention is when the guy who tinted the front windshield he heated the corner, he cracked the front glass. I ordered a new windshield off of ebay but then no wants to install it for me .... so this morning I watched several youtube videos on how to and started it myself. I was done in about 2.5 hours so I would like to encourage anyone who is hesitant to go for it.... it's not that hard.
