Thanks. We'll see how the vintage surf theme plays out over the build, it sounds good but will see if it comes together. To keep the vintage style going, decided on an 18" Detroit Steel Wheel smoothie with beauty ring and clipped for the painted 65 dog dish. Took a while to find an 18" wheel that had a steel beauty ring, everything else I saw used a plated ABS ring. Using an 18"x8" wheel with a 4.5" backspace wearing a 255x55x18 tire.
Deep into some of the sheet metal mods (big window conversion, 1960 grille, etc) will post updates once something gets done. Thanks again.
