Wheels look great Pete!
Dr. Bob...make sure you buy ATF +4 fluid for that trans.
The front wheels bearings are worn out on my conversion van (they are original with close to 200K on them!) although I have cleaned and repacked them a few times in 10 years of owning the van. So I ordered up new bearings & seals and also a set of new MOOG U-joints from Rock Auto. Next weekend's project before I hit the road for Lost. Ordered up my parts online. Advance Auto wanted almost $100.00 for these parts! Got the same from Rock Auto for around $63.00 shipped to my door. That's for National bearings/seals and Moog u-joints. Crazy. Got my parts today. I'm disappointed in Federal-Mogul right now. The u-joints are made in the USA, but the grease seals are made in Mexico, and the bearings are made in China.

Timing adjusted. New plugs, new wires. Running like a CHAMP! I may miss the backfiring a little bit (kidding)... It was sort of fun in the parking structures in town, though. Loved watching people shit themselves...

Added a small bit of LED lighting to her. . . . . more to come !   LED underbody kit will be added some. . . . all blue . I also plan to paint the headlight buckets white and TRY to find some clear running/turn signal housings as well as paint behind the grill silver/aluminum to make the LED lighting show up better.
