    Wheels/tires and front disc conversion done with the exception of the master cylinder.
    One more tranny part and the stroker will go in and then away we go, I hope.

    Scarebird disc convesrion for the brakes and I wanted anything but 13" wheels but its hard to find anything that would fit the 4 x 4.5 bolt pattern so went with true wire wheels. With the knock off adaptors you can go with any size wheel you want. I found the 14" NOS Zenith wheels built in 1985 on Ebay. Wanted the car low so I went with a wider low profile tire to get the look I wanted. Can not wait to stuff the motor back in to bring down the front end to get the full effect.

    I went with a more 'resto-mod' look on my '63 (and used 17's). 63 Buick 4.JPG

    My car was one month old in that photo, my wife's senior prom in May 67.
    I was a big college stud then. LOL

    hi:

    It is actually a late-model Dodge color; I'll look up the actual name and get back to you.

    cheers, Ray
