----Have been friends with Bill P since 1990. We have raced each other and been at the same vintage meets on several occasions. He is the real deal and just a good guy. You couldn't have a better guy to mentor you, Ryan!.....Bill S

I would have bet a dollar you guys know each other. :-)

At some point during MSU Project W31 talk I shared a link to this/my build thread and Bill (Port) was reading through it over a few days. He made notes and had questions that weren’t answered in the thread with page numbers for reference (once an engineer always an engineer)

During PSMCDR one of the MSU Project W31 group sold me a set of MotorWheel Spyders for the front of my Cutlass.

15 X 4.5’s with nuts and centers!!!

Now I need a set of drag tires/front runners.

:-)

I have wanted a set of these for a long time!!!

This weekend Al Corporon and our wives all attended a car show close to our trailer on Lake Huron

Super fun!!!

We even had the opportunity to chat with Wayne Smith. He bought a Garnet Red, Parchment bench, 4 speed COPO Chevelle at Central Chev Olds when the car was traded in at three months old as it was too slow. (The lady that traded it in bought an L88 Vette)

OMG, I'm drooling over the Parchment interior in that Garnet red COPO. Same color combo as we had in my wife's old 69 Impala convertible. Thanks for posting, Ryan!

I am handing in my Birthday and Christmas wish list this week, (2 front runner tires) so I hope to show and tell in the new year!!!

Van Hurst and Dave Siltman have helped me pick out proper size tires.
