    I'll have to double check. The brake conversions require 17" wheels and up.

      It's the 9" wheel is too wide on a 17, an 18 is tall enough to clear

          That makes sense. I'd personally lean toward a narrower version, but a 67+ can get away with more wheel. 18's just look a little too big on 65-66, to my eye anyway. There are of course, excrptions to that rule.

            Lol true. I do believe I'll be sticking to the 17s. I really like that wheel dimension on these cars , 18s in my opinion , although are only an inch larger, I just think they look too big.

                Looks great. I just think the car sits a little too high

                  Lines are great on that car too. What wheels are those?

                    Man, those wheels look bad ass on that car. Making the pro-touring look work in the best way. I really like the color of them too.

                    I've been fantasizing about building a trans am-ish coupe for the street just for fun. I love my car but I think it would be really fun to have one that was a little ratty so I could hoon it down a dirt road without having kittens about paint and what not.

                    I love the look of this flared coupe here:

                      You're making great progress. Is this what you do for a living?

                        Door installed

                        , got the right side sheet metal basically done now.
                        Just gotta weld up the seem on the quarter a bit better, then puddy it up along with a couple of other spot welds on the seem on the rear trunk area. Door went on great and lined up pretty wel for the most part. Mocked up the fender just to see the look.

                            Hahah thanks. It's all nuts and bolts at the end of the day (minus the welding).
                            I'm waiting on my welder to come in so I can start back up with the welding. The welder I have right now is a POS and it's making it's much harder than it needs to be.

                              Got the new welder and holy crap what a difference a good welder can do. Got the drivers quarter 90% off and got the wheel well out. Gonna start on the sail panel seem and remove the rest of the quarter panel and get to installing the new one. Got the new trunk extension welded in too.
