Re: 91 'Bird with custom paint

Very nice color, can you adjust the hood anymore in the front?

Re: 91 'Bird with custom paint

BigWhite - I was planning on trying to bring it down some and adjust my headlights up just a little. The body shop I took it to turned out to be absolute junk on the service side of things and didn't align anything when the body went back together

86TA - They're 235/40R18s up front 245/40R18 out in the back. They do catch on the inner fender during full turn but are still smaller than I would have liked to go (25.4" overall front compared to 26"). I've been considering going 275 or 285 in the rear with some new 19" wheels and keeping the 235/18s in the front
