Has anyone tried to put 4th generation Camaro wheels on the A body Buicks..like a 66 Skylark...HELP!!
Haven't tried a 4th Gen wheel yet.....I suspect you'll need some billet spacers and probably different lug nuts. Pretty sure all the newer cars have metric lugs.
I have a pair of 16" Firebird wheels off an '01 that I can try out on my '66 when it gets here(in transit). If they fit I have an extra pair of ET Streets that are going on the car:grin:
Cool, wheres your 66 coming from?...I got mine 12/7/03, been working on it, its pretty much ALL over the garage right now :grin: but I'm having fun, let me know how those wheels work, I think with a 1 inch spacer they should work good.
Mine just got here on the 23rd from NH. I've been sick in bed all week but this week I'll give it a try:grin:
Sorry you've been sick, that has to suck waiting on your ride to come in and being sick when it gets here, on top of the holidays also, I bought a set of 17's for my car, so I'm good on wheels, but I'd love to see your car, sounds like we both have a 66 winter project happening! :grin:
Here she is....this car has NO RUST! Floors and trunk are great, I've got the carpets out and this car is SOLID!:grin:
Sweet!...looks like we both got some nice pieces to start with, is that another one beside it?.... http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33117 thats mine, its pretty much all apart now, got to finish strippin the glue off the roof from v-top and then I can start getting it ready for primer.
Yours is a bit further along than mine....that pic is from where I bought the car, that is another '66 next to her though! I am still looking for ALL the parts on my list though:ball: I do have a complete center console with shifter and wiring that I'm going to be selling, I bought it but I decided to stick with the bench seat for now.
Let me know about that consol, I may want it...do you have the seats also? (buckets)....mine has a bench in it but I like buckets...
I only have the console and shifter, no seats. If you have anything on my wanted list here I'm open for trades. I bought the console off e-bay, here's the link . I'd rather trade parts than sell, it's a lot easier for me and more fun between my fellow Buick enthusiasts:grin:. Artie
