my two year experiment with building a LS3 73 Camaro is over! Couldn't get a shop to finish some things (and it wouldn't fit in my Garage).
I'm a Driver 1st & foremost, so it has been a grind to see a project going nowhere, so my latest pickup is with LS6 Motor! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

Just a quick question about the wheels on this thing. They look like (and I’m pretty sure are) 17” Boxster rims. I assume 7” and 8” wide but do you happen to know the offset? Curious what size tires those are, too. I just picked up a rough 944 Turbo and I like the look with those wheels. I looked up companies that do LS conversions and one of the first places that popped up on my internet search was a place in the same town as me. Had no idea these guys even existed but plan to run by and check out their operation soon. Rob, my wheels will definitely be For Sale in a few weeks since I picked up the Fikse's Well, shoot, that’s bad timing. On Thursday I jumped on CL and low and behold a guy had the early offset phone dials in 16”...two miles from my house. Guy had no idea what he had, he was trying to put them on a ‘67 Beetle...with stock fenders. He got ‘em from a guy who didn’t know what he had. First guy put brand new tires on them and proceeded to put them on a later 944. He quickly sliced up one of the rears, figured he didn’t have the right wheels and traded to the guy I bought them from. Tires and associated hardware removed and headed to paint on Monday. I appreciate you remembering that I was interested. They look clean so I’m sure they’ll sell quick. |
