Glad to hear you were finally able to sell the Bonanza and that it went to a good home.

Can't wait to see the next project come together.

No problem. They Rallys were 15x8 at all four corners . Stock wheels. Tires were 255/60 and 275/60 and the centercaps were the 90 model style cap .The lug nuts were the 1/2x20 lugs designed to use the plastic threaded cap . You can buy them on the internet or if you find a late 80's or I think early 90's Astro van they had 1/2 studs before going to metric .I bought the caps,lugs, and black lug covers on the parts board here over a year or two ago but just decided to install them on this truck .I liked the results.

Looks awesome! Can't wait to put my 15x8 rallies on my truck. Scored 4 trim rings and caps last week at the pick/pull for $50.

What is the OEM color of the wheels? I was told Dull aluminum

I assumed that was next in line. It's going to be a nice one for sure. What changed your mind on the LSx conversion?

I have everything to put it together with a 355, Sportsman heads, RPM airgap, 700cfm mechanical secondaries, TCI 2400 stall, Ceramic Hooker headers, 50 series flows, etc. I need to use that setup and this truck has such a nice interior and factory gauges. I do not think that you can use the factory tach and speedo with the electronics needed for the 6.0 . I think thats right.

Well Frank Congrats. on selling the truck and getting rite back into another. Good luck with the truck.

alboutrux · 03-27-2011, 12:44 AM

Can't wait to see how the new one will come together. Mad at myself for not being able to move on the black one. Oh well, just not meant to be. Congrats to you.

Thank You for you help! I will start looking today. May I ask what kind of front and rear drop? Looks good! Good luck and hope good times on your new build.

KMK454 · 03-27-2011, 03:01 PM

Truck looked great on those factory rallyes! All you had left to do was raise it back to factory ride height

Smoke_Dog · 03-27-2011, 05:00 PM

Nice find!!! Now why can't I find something like this???

Did the 20's go with the sold truck too, or did you keep them? I am looking for a used set like that. They sure looked good on your truck.

f.monroe · 03-27-2011, 09:24 PM

I kept the 20's . I want to use them . I have a local guy that wants them but I would want too much to sell them so I imagine I will have them on the next truck .

Smart to keep them. I would have done the same thing. I'm sure they will look good on your next truck!
