    Love the wheel and it is only your test build, should look great when you get around to making them. What diameter are they.

    Body work looks good as well

    Cool Wheel size?

    Would end up being about 2 3/4" what ever that is in your neck of the woods. lol
    Need to build the wheels first so I can be sure and get the fenders right, sometimes what I want and how they turn out can be a little different..

    To tell you the truth I'm running out of places to put them, there all over the house.
    Both of the Ford vans have some where to go so that's good.
