Now you need to go for that vintage comp look. So grab a couple handfulls of pea gravel and standing at the nose, throw it at the car as hard as possible. You'll know when you get it just right!

Very nice! How long do you anticipate before she's roadworthy?

Jeff - For the sake of the beautiful body on your car, make sure that your front tires will not hit the front fenders on your car when you go over bumps or around a corner. You are going to have to compensate for the extra wide tires in the front with a ride height you may not like. My 215/70 avons were about .25" too wide and actually pushed my front fender out ever so slightly with my 6.5" magnesium kidney beans. I subsequently downsized to 205/70s and it solved the issue (fortunately the paintless dent guy can straighten the aluminum this winter). Your tires are substantially wider than mine and the tire height is only .5" different (.25" clearance difference in the fender well).
Hopefully they will work out for you, but just wanted to give you a heads up.
Thanks
Mike
