Plan B

Well with good intentions but an awfully big mouth, I loaned my silver Cab to dad in law for a few months, for fathers day.

So, the white Cab is finally getting a little run. It's wearing the baby Aero I 3 piece version of RBYCC's incoming beauties. (These are 16x7.5 et32)

Stock suspension, so I went a bit tall w the tires, 215 x 55 x 16

Some new shots today of the white Cab:









I left the "gold edition" wheel caps, but they just "look" rusty to me so they'll be swapped. Maybe all the "gold edition" items should go, I don't really like the combo of gold, chrome, white, silver and tan, at least in this car.

I like the aero I 17s more and I'll have them on this car whenever it becomes a regular driver.

This is an iPhone shot today of the white Cab:

Used camera and added a few pics at home...

If Ed is right, I'll enter heaven through Gullwing doors. I'll know I went the "other" way if I am surrounded by 90s generation GM, Chrysler and Ford products.

Sorry Brent, I did hook up ohollenbeck with a set that I hope will fit his new r107, but I doubt I'll sell any other aero Is.
