    Replaced my worn and peeling Grant GT wheel with a nice looking, hard rubber-coating Challenger series. Being my first time installing this particular installation kit and wheel using their absolutely TERRIBLE documentation, I got the wheel on, but not before scratching and banging and actually breaking many of the parts. Was not a good evening! But it sure is nice not having black stuff come off on my hands while driving :thumbs2:

    That's the common issue most builders/restorers share...


    We got our first snow last night and it's now 23*, I ain't goin' near the garage for a few days...

    not even sure I understand the idea of done. that is what happens when you cant find the parts (rocker panels in my case) then the car is done. right? :cry:
