Java Green 64

While I was adjusting the brakes I decided to throw the bmw wheels on Java..... I like them on there but they didn't stay. The front needs a narrowed beam to tuck those 7" wheels.....

It doesn't look to bad at that altitude with those wheels. I'll narrow your beam for the old wheels. haha

New seat belt....

I decided to put the new 185/60/15s that I had on the torkers to get rid of the fender gap. Also installed the 145/15 on the spare!....these rims will be going on Ashley's Bug I just need to build my beam for Java so I can put the bmw wheels on......

I finally got around to making a stock set of wheels in the colors I wanted. I will put the set on Java for now so I can get the torkers off so I can save the tires for Ashley's car.



Slight holdup though Java's engine I think has finally tired. This heat has not been well to it. I think I am going to freshen up a 40 horse I got and put it in so I can dig into the current engine.....more to come after I finish the garage

Does anyone know where I can get good quality hub cap clips?

I haven't used these personally, but I've read that these were the good tall ones.
