Reply to "Chip Foose on the mangusta"

Would only move the marker light, even the design of the wheels is the same..."no gingerbread," "pure elegant, not overdone..." Great, so if Overhaulin was still on TV I'd be the perfect candidate for him to finish my car...He could probably get it done in a week, too, and I would be surprised and grateful

At least, maybe someday Foose will make 17" wheels that look like the original Campies...likely, my tires will die of old age before the tread gets thin, Foose's comment that even the change in wheels is about better driveability on modern tires is just sensible.

But I think more often that Doug is right: I'm more inclined on 70 series big profile (not the 295/50 I put on the rear). The tubbed-out look here doesn't really look right, I've come to like the tall tire. And if Foose is going to make wheels for lower profile, he should supply a different oil pan and skidplate in the package--Lee
