Gary Lewis Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Center caps more than the wheels. It would be really hard to judge lug spacing from that pic. I was more thinking the style of the wheel, which just looks "new" to me. But the center cap does as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearhead Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Oh, I miss my '85 HO. Is that Prima all over the roof of your SC? Or is something else going on there? Primer. It was a Florida truck, so the drip rails were rusty and a leak around the windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearhead Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Nice Mustang. On the truck, I took the liberty of turning it right side up so's I could get my head around what it is. And it looks nice! Thanks. I have no ideas how I got rubber side up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rims are off a 95 E350, powder coated argent. NOS factory caps. Axles are dana 61 rear, factory, and front is just 2wd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van rims explain modern equipment with fractional pattern. It really does update the look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nothing Special Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Van rims explain modern equipment with fractional pattern. It really does update the look! Is '95 modern? What does that make my '97 then? Seriously, the pickups didn't go to metric rims until '97 for F-150 and '99 for F-250HD and F-350. But as you know, vans stayed with inches much longer.

Pressure washed and degreased, primed with self etching primer and painted except under the bell by the pan for now. Pulled the pan and it looks fantastic inside and I was informed fluid and filter were changed less than 20k miles ago. It has been rebuilt at some point. I was missing the filter housing gasket for my new pan so tomorrow my local trans shop is hooking me up with one for $1. I couldnt install the pan tonight, but I couldnt help but set my new bling on there ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air hungry, but not more than blasting and a WHOLE lot cleaner. Put a piece of plastic underneath and just roll it up. If it was southern surface rust I'd just etch and paint.
