Gary, did you ever send your wheels to Eric Vaughn?
I did not. But I will probably do that in the coming year. I ordered my new hood this past weekend so that will have to do for a while. Now that I put the Brembos on the front I can't run any of the other wheels I have on front, but I can run them on back. So while the back wheels are getting widened I'll have 2 different wheels on the car.

I need to do it this winter so I can have the car in good shape for the spring.

They do!!!




I'll be keeping the stripes on the car. I hope they'll look good on the cowl. Goodness knows I won't miss that hood scoop on the car. That was my mistake.

Plus I'll get some heat extraction which should help with the headers and the heat soak.

Hello my name is Peggy!

Parnelli owes a PJ but I don't think it's the one pictured. He mentioned that he owned #1 or #2 can't remember but it's an early production model. As George knows the lower the number the better the car.

Nice GT500.
I tell you though, I couldn't bring myself to get rid of a PJ.
That car was way too cool.
I would end up with both.
