Some pics of my Torana upgrades so far..

One of the most horrible thing people do to classic cars is put modern wheels/rims on them, it's looks terrible.
While you haven't done that, you have made a tasteful 50/50, so good on you.

I like the larger wheels, and they let you run modern tires and decent brakes. The old 14" and 15" stuff just pales in comparison IMO

(I want to drop the back of the car about an 1"...but I will see what it does with a full tank of petrol)

Once you fill the tank and do a few 1st- 2nd and 3rd gear burn outs it may just sit fine
The car looks great with the wheel and tire combo!!!

Thanks! And I will see how it sits with a full tank of gas and after driving it around a little bit for sure...

Done mechanically now, just need to pay the rego and run it around some. I've still have some interior stuff to do, been working on the audio system lately, but it's work time again, and I have a bunch of vehicles to buy and containers to load (with the dollar the way it is, got a ton of orders coming in!) so won't really have time to finish the rest of the car off for about 5 weeks now.

Them rims really don't accent the car well man.they give it a goofy look imho! You don't have to run a 14 or 15 inch rim but at least something that fits the flow & the lines of the car

I need the 18" rims to clear my 14.25" brakes, so they are there for a reason. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I like the larger wheel look, the fact 18" tires are very good compared to most 15" stuff, etc.

The wheels look great. I'm not a fan of big wheels, low profile tyres, or modern designs on old cars either. But I don't think those wheels check any of those boxes.
They are a somewhat 1980's design, and that's fine by me, cause that is when people were really starting to do these cars up.
I have always been a Ford fan, but Torana's hold a special place in every Aussie's heart. Your pics have almost 100% convinced me this is the car I should restore. (But I still want a BOB )
