spib 05-28-2007 04:54 AM

so avery what wheels are you going to get? My blazer had some wheels on it that I hated, and when I bought my 85 shortbed had them same ones , anyway I vote for some draglites or pro stars!!!!

chevguy65 05-28-2007 05:25 AM

How about these in a 24".....

perry you need to come off a set of those pony wheels

lotsof454sss 05-28-2007 02:10 PM

You can buy the whole car....the tires are nearly new too...I know this much, it is faster that my 79 which I would expect...

lookingaround 05-28-2007 02:36 PM

i dont need the whole car. just the wheels. lol

lotsof454sss 05-28-2007 02:48 PM

I know the feeling..Example...I was wanting to buy 2 used tires for the Z28....They are the low profile Michelins and hard to find used and in good condition...An ole guy I know in the tire business had 4...I asked him how much for 2 and he said $200..I had asked the price for all 4 and it was $200 so needless to say he would not split the set...I bought all four and have 2 for spares as I run smaller on the front than rear.....But I got what I wanted...at a price...but if I find a set I will let you know..Your wanting the 16" right??

lookingaround 05-28-2007 03:31 PM

im just messing with you. im going to get some welds are convo pros for it. no use in buying 2 sets of wheels. thanks though

spib 05-28-2007 08:14 PM

Yes it sounds like there is a chance there might be some draglites on there!!!!! Avery I always wanted draglites and last year when I got them it took me 3 weeks to get the courage to drill 32 holes in them beautiful wheels, turned out excellent, and man I like them, I am glad you got the stang, Its nice to see someone get there wish!!!!!

woodsman 06-21-2007 03:01 PM

well update on the stang. i had to trade it off to my wife a new car. her explorer was going down hill quick. the wife and kids come first. ill post some pics of the new Blazer i traded for.

chevguy65 06-24-2007 08:29 AM

Avery,

Good to have your priorities straight.

I agree family comes first.

I know some people that would allow their kids to run around shoeless and hungry just to get a jetboat, or a part they need etc.

Your a good man Avery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

woodsman 06-24-2007 08:50 AM

Avery I know you must feel very good about being able to do the right thing and all that tells me is you are a real man. It makes me proud just to know that we still have men that will do the right thing. Thanks for being a man and for that your next car will be. Well just sit back and watch. Good times are on the way. Wesley

lookingaround 06-24-2007 12:59 PM

thanks guys. but that is my job to take care of the family first. here are some pics of it.
