Seeing those GT's on there is the reason why I keep on holding onto mine!!! Every now and then I trip over them and think about getting rid of them..but pics like that makes me put up with tripping over them.

What are the wheel/tire packages?

(LOVE them dog dish caps! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] ) </div></div>

yep deep water blue with blue bench seat interior..

I have the original 14 steels and it has 15 inchers in the picture...
L-78-15 up front on 6 inch wheels and in the back I took a pair of 8&quot; vette Rallys,cut the centers out and welded in a pair of 'stock' non-rally ceners so I'd have an 8 inch rim for the cheater slicks 28 inch h
Hoosiers...

for the G/T's ..you could only EVER get them 14 or 15 by SIX...

So I restored a nice pair for the front with 7.75 Vette Red
Lines and took another pair of G/T's for the rear..sent those out and had them cut the wheel apart near the inside bead and welded in an 1 1/2 section making the rears 7 1/2 wide for the Hoosiers...I had a pair of ancient Racemasters on it for a while and it look ultra-fabulous with the gennies on.

The Race Masters are going the Russ Dunmire car on chrome slots as it was originally raced...

neat piece i just found. Bieber Changer. Think they were acquired by Hurst shortly after they introduced this shifter.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

What is that? Life before Ram Rod's? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img]

Yes, Bieber Shifters, Doylestown, Pa. 20 minutes from me and 20 minutes from the old Hurst. Those were the days!

i dont have the IQ to figure out how it works.
what was the advantage of using one?

[Salvatore]

good question! I think you just pulled the levers straight and not in an H pattern for faster shifts. maybe one lever for first/second the other for 3rd/4th? Would assume the instruction sheet has the answer to that question BUT never used on. I just remember they used to have these set up on the transmissions in the local speed shops in our area. WOW, has time flown by!

Jim, that is exactly what I want to do with another set of G/Ts I own. Can you tell me where you had your wheels modified?

I had work done here: http://weldcraftwheels.com/

I was pleased with the quality, price and quick turn around.
