Picked up a pair of 16x4 space saver spares at pull-a-part on Saturday.
The plan is to cut the centers out and convert the outers to be used for use with the wire wheels. I will be converting my 15x5.5 wheels to 16x4.
Going to play with forming the dimples for the spoke nipples using a press. Not sure if I will need to add heat or form it cold.
If it works, these will be the front wheels. I want skinny 18's for the rear wheels.There are two things in life where penetration is really important.....and one of them is welding.

Found another pretty car to influence the build. Don't know if I like this nose better or not.

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
