Re: Show us your projects

If you used S-10 axles, the tires would stick in too far. With a 5 to 6 lug one inch spacer, you could space the hub out to look right and then use 6 lug wheels.

I would probably let them go for $100 each without tires. I had them polished, so they are pretty reflective. It's been 25 years since the polish job, but they've looked great the whole time.
Since the tires are pretty good, I guess $75 each for the tires.
They would come with lug nuts and locks and caps.
I couldn't find new carroll shelby cap stickers, so when I replaced the caps I just used American Racing stickers.

They would have to be rebalanced since I balanced them assembled with wheels, tires, nuts, locks, drums and hubs.
Those old original chevy drums are terrible for balance. With the overdrive, at 75 mph, you want em to not bounce.
