Talking Updated pics of my 79 Sa with different rims..

Well I was able to convince member Kory_yahi to sell me his rims and tires off his Sa that he is selling.. He most graciously did this for me and I am thankfull he did
because the Sa now has the old school look..

I will lower it later after I decide what type of suspension setup I will be going with. They are 195-60-13.... Need to find center caps, missing 3 of them.. Any clues on where to locate. They are Riken wheels....

No, that's members kory_yahi's that I worked my Butt off on getting it ready for SS9 and now he's selling it,lol......

That's ok though. I worked on and modified his 88 GXL then he sold it..
I only did 1 thing to his Fd and he sold that.
Then he bought my 84 Se then sold that. What's next..

Diabolical1-You will be happy to know that the Fb wheels are back on her...After looking at the Fb wheels on Kory's Sa it just did not compliment the paint or the lines of the Sa properly, so there back on his Sa..
