Re: 1972 Gran Torino Sport - 17 year barn nap find

A quick update, I ended up bringing the GTS home from my buddy's shop this last weekend, and was cleaning stuff up.
I got the RH quarter panel done from the top bodyline down, RH door is done aswell.
I picked up some rims last week, and was having some fun on the street.


I aired the tires up, bolted them on, and holy &*@# they hook up.





No rubbing, a bit further out towards the wheel lips, but she sits nice IMHO

With the nice weather this week, I plan on getting the body work cleaned up on the quarters now, and maybe just maybe priming the thing if it warms up like they are saying. never thought I would be asking for a mid 70's temp weather so badly as right now!!!
