Sold the V-max, B-king and the ML all in 3 days! got a deal on this.
Atlanta Powersports bought the B-King. sent a truck to the Mercedes-Benz plant where I work to pick it up. Guy that picked it up said it was being Exported to Egypt. So for them to buy it, come get it and then export it they must make a killing on the bikes. He said they were highly sought after overseas. Guy came and looked at the V-max and watched me do a second gear burnout down the street and had to have it. Then the ML didnt even last but a couple of hours. I had it to low priced I guess. First person that drove it bought it. Maybe things are picking up. Anyway I found a killer deal on this. A mint 1968 numbers matching Firebird.
So I wanted to ,ake it look like a 60's drag retro car so I put some wheels and tires on it to give it the look.
wide on the rear skinny on the front.

I used to own a 68 400 firebird was a good looking car. Never had nice wheels like those, looks good.

Thanks, Draglites were the only wheel I could think of that would give it the 60's look I was going for. I am going to look at a LS1 and 6-speed manual trans from a 2002 wrecked Trans Am that I want to put in the firebird. give it a little modern muscle and a manual trans.
