In post 56, what's that in front of your air filter?

Also this is looking good

Thanks

it's a shield that is sold to stealth the filter. It fits up under the 14" filter cover edge.

bobshotrodblazer · 01-15-2015, 02:19 PM

Got my new rally's in and painted
6 x 15 and 10 x 15
with cop caps

don't have rears mounted yet

68Gold/white · 01-15-2015, 03:00 PM

Wow, awesome!!!
Can't wait to see what the rear 10 inchers look like.
I'm wondering about clearances, inner and outer (obviously not worried about a problem...) would like to see inner and outer pic's...

What size tires???

bobshotrodblazer · 01-15-2015, 03:17 PM

I have the set of 295/65-15's MT ET streets that fit good. (picture #56)
I could still go a little wider though.
Shopping around .

bobshotrodblazer · 01-17-2015, 03:09 PM

New wheels mounted and balanced

boynton · 01-18-2015, 03:07 AM

That looks sharp!

bobshotrodblazer · 01-18-2015, 10:09 AM

bobshotrodblazer · 01-23-2015, 11:56 AM

*low&slow* · 01-23-2015, 11:59 AM

bobshotrodblazer · 01-24-2015, 10:45 PM

bobshotrodblazer · 01-29-2015, 10:18 PM

68Gold/white · 02-15-2015, 02:10 PM

Is that an aftermarket dash??? I like it!

bobshotrodblazer · 02-15-2015, 07:09 PM

No it's a stock dash
Just added my twist to it

bobshotrodblazer · 02-15-2015, 08:51 PM
