I have a set of slots but they are 6 lug.

I’ve got a handy dandy dewalt drill that will fix that problem right up
As long as an insurance company gets screwed I’m all good with what ever you do with it. Do something out of the box with it change soneoneslife with a free car for yourself sellit and enjoy the money and go buy something cool a new Tig Welder. Or new plasma cutter or both that car would be funding my machine shop build for damsure if it was mine cause id sell as fast as possible
Here’s my 66 w M/T slots on it back in 76
My 71 is in the garage
sorry for the blur, but its all I got.
I always thought the Western spoked wheels look good on vintage road racers, as well as Torque Thrust D's

So still pretty undecided but I know I want to keep somewhat of a vintage vibe. And I'll probably never do anything more then drive this car. The 327/4 speed is fine.
Doubt I'll ever track it. It's a heavy ass Chevelle. Who cares.
If I went classic five spoke it would be a gray Torq Thrust D.
Or.
Vintage Wheel Works v40
And I found these on the American Racing web page, it's kinda a modern version of salt flat.
I suppose I should think about budget, but right now I am still in trying to find a direction for it.

The wheel works v40 looks awesome man. I want to do the gray torq thrusts on my 91
If it was me I’d find some tires that hold air and get it running. Then worry about wheels... that’s the easy part. JMO. Nothing about a non running vehicle would make me spend money on something that takes less than half an hour to change.
Did you see how they turned a crown Vic into the general lee?

I'll take that as a compliment!

Plus I probably won't really buy anything of real expense until later this winter. I already ordered a few little things, trunk lock, some broken/Missing trim, etc.

Have you looked into the gen 2 trans am sway bar swap? Got one on my 67.
I basically have stock parts in the car and it handles pretty good.
Poly bushings in all suspension parts, boxed rear control arms, qua1 nohops, factory rear sway bar, gen 2 ta sway bar up front, kyb shocks all around.

Good info, that's basically what I would want. Just something that is fun to drive.
Yep. The sway bars prob made the biggest difference I’d say. The rear one toned body roll right down.

Stole these from CL but the car has a decent stance.
Wheels look good even though they are Boyd's.
Coy's has almost the identical wheel at half the price.
Good thing with Coy's is they will deliver for free to shows they attend and will give a hell of a discount.
They carry American Racing, Boyd and a few others.

That's a hot car. Forking cowl hood, but otherwise. It's hot
