Forged Cragars

[pwm72]

Finally got my springs done today (Thanks Dave Steele:TU:) and installed my new Cragars and tires. They are 275's on the rear and 235's up front. Just need to get the alignment done, then I should be all set. Kind of a nice look I think...

Oh come on Paul, give us a 3/4 shot (shows the side and front).
I didn't realize you had installed the stage 2 scoop.

Al, I haven't installed the scoop yet. I was just checking to see how it looked. I have now convinced myself to go ahead and cut the hole in the hood. This car is no longer a daily driver so I am more comfortable doing it. Maybe it'll be done in time for the Homdel Park event...:Brow:

Anybody got a pic of Cragars on a 68-69? I want a visual before I start spending money.

Len here's a couple pics I found. I've never been fond of the Cragar SS wheels on the 68-69's, but I like the look of these Street -Star's from Cragar.

Better shot of wheel.

Hi Jim
What size rims are those you are running and do you have a side view of that hot car.Thanks Curtis

[James P]

Curtis,

That's not my car in the pics, so I have no idea what size those are, but they don't look very deep. I'm guessing 15x7's, since he's running 235's on it. I found the car here (http://sportscargallery.com/1969%20Buick%20Skylark.htm) while searching for 69's.

Paul, that scoop looks great on there.

:TU:

they're probably 15x8s. i run 235/60s on mine. they come with 4 1/8 backspacing. i'm guessing i could definately fit a 275 in the back, maybe a 295. might rub the lip on the quarter, though.
