Re: Gonna need some ideas for this one
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: markinnaples</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I vote for the 70's standards: Higher stance, wide Cragars on the rear (N50's) and slightly wider than stock Cragars on the front, some panel paint done with either paint or a vinyl wrap for ease of removal if you'd like, a pedestal spoiler on the rear ala a Judge, loud exhaust, etc. I guarantee people will look at it and love it everywhere you go. </div></div>
I wasn't alive then, so what I'm gonna say has more to do with my 1980s paradigm: If I see a LeMans, etc. dressed up like that, I think it's clapped-out. Perhaps for a GTO it would work for my eyes, but a T-37 should use more subtle mods. I guess the spoiler is throwing me off, as the rest sounds fine. One wheel that I've always liked was offered by Oldsmobile for their big cars but also offered by a company (Motor Wheel?) and called it the "Exciter" I think? They're polycast like Honeycombs. |

Re: Gonna need some ideas for this one
Cragar S/Ss or American 200S "daisy" spokes would look good for a 1970-71 Day 2 look.

Re: Gonna need some ideas for this one
Appearance mods will be very mild: monochrome paint, ladder bars, tow tabs and wheels. Spoiler is definitely out of the question. lol
Pretty sure I have the wheel selection narrowed down to the Appliance Dia-Mag. 442W30: Exciter wheel looks kind of bland to me? http://www.akhwheels.com/pages/showWheel.php?pk=527 |

Sounds more 1980's than 1970's, but to each their own.

Re: Gonna need some ideas for this one
I guess they were called Sunfire's in the 70's. Attached is a Appliance Sunfire dated 1974. I suppose even that is a little late for "Day 2" |
