Just trying to do a little updating. I picked up a set of 16x8 Work equip 05s that I will likely be rebuilding. Aiming to end up somewhere around et -5. Tire consideration so far is possibly a Yokohama 175/50/16 which is kind of a weird size but might suit my needs. I dont think I'd be able to run anything shorter. I'm already looking to either raise the car a little bit or shorten the oil pan as it's currently touching the ground with the 185/55/15 test wheel on the passenger side. There is more calculating and decisions to make in that department.
I picked up a 360mm Nardi classic today and now looking into ideas for gauges.
The choice I keep coming back to mostly because of the look is the Stewart Warner deluxe black set. Looks somewhat period correct in my opinion but at the same time updated. They are also very affordable.
Im still on the lookout for a set of fender mirrors. Specifically an old datsun set. They arent cheap so im taking my time hoping for a decent used set to pop up somewhere.
My buddy brought his 122 wagon over to my garage and we are in the beginning stages of a b230 turbo/ T-5 swap. Once his is moving along well, i'll start the same swap in my car. Not trying to go crazy, only looking for about 200hp, and with a solid 5 speed it should make for a much more enjoyable driving experience. Yes, I could do a m41 overdrive but ive always disliked the idea of those. The Phoenix area is a large grid with a big necessity for freeway travel. As of yet, I havent been able to drive the car comfortably.

Been working on the wheels a little bit. Cant wait for the barrels to get here. Could be a few weeks for that.
So I took them apart and have been doing what I can in the meantime.
Had the caps polished
Been working on the hardware. Most of them came out well, but quite a few will need to be replaced due to rust and corrosion.
Also decided to test paint a face and see how I would like gold centers. I was originally thinking full polish, but the gold could be the way to go for this.
