The paint looks really sharp on that car, and I have always like TTII's on our cars. For some reason it looks like the rear is jacked up a bit?
Maybe it's just the picture. I agree with finding a hood for it, and lowering it just a bit. Other than that, very nice lookin car man. What kind of times are you looking for? Good luck and find a hood!!

Im either gonna use a 3 inch cervini cowl, or a SS hood. The rear tires are 315's. The reason the back looks high is because the weight of the motor dropped the front. I will drop the rear about 2 inches to match the front.

The fronts are 17X9.5 with a 7.0" BS, the rears are 17X11 with a 7.75" backspace. I am using a 2" spacer in the front, and a 1.25" in the rear.

Yeah, with the 11" rears that is about as perfect as you can get without major mods to the inner fender well. I had a set of those wheels in the same size, just different finish, but decided to go another route. They fit right about in the same position as your rears do. Once again, nice ride. Love the 11" rears.
