    I would keep the rims you have. Just find some centers. Those rims are sharp!!!

    keep the magnums

    I may be a little biased on this but I love the magnums on a Mav or comet.

    I have to agree, though I'm a bit biased as I have Magnums also. The only other rims that I have a soft spot for are the classic Cragar SS mags. The styling is timeless and they look good on virtually everything.

    I have 1968 GT rims on the Merc1. They look great. I am also running Eagle GT tires.

    I plan to post some pics of the Merc1. I gotta scan the pics and then put them on disk. It is either that or put them on disk at the one hour photo place. She is coming along rather well.
    Oh, I live in Western Carolina, in a little town called Shelby, North Carolina. I inherited the car from my late grandmother. She was one fast granny in the little Mercury.
