That is one tough Riviera. I like how you did the fender wells and engine bay in pearl. It looks really good. The burnout pic is awsome! :TU:

Here's My 69 Will Try To Load Pics. Of My 69 Gs Later Cars Look Great Everybody. 69 Skylark 11.26 69 Gs 350 13.32 67 Skylark 430
Ken, The wheels are 17 X 7 Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's, I think the tires are 245/45 in the rear and 225/45 in the front. I got standard backspacing (4 inch I think), in hindsight, I probably should have gone 4 3/4 or so in the rear and got a bigger tire. It has 2 inch dropped coils from Orignal Parts group (opgi.com) to get that mean look. The color is actually more of a copper than red. Thanks for the kind words!
