Re: getting ready for cinco de mayo

That's pretty cool! My guilty pleasure...Daytons. I try not to let that come out when I'm around my drag racing buddies. Where abouts in 'Jose are you? I lived in San Jose for 20+ years before moving to SoCal.

Re: getting ready for cinco de mayo

I was wondering what 100 spokes would look like on my 66. Now I know. Nice!

I guess I've been watching Livin the Low Life too much. What size and offset?
