    Are those BBS centers, or another vendor that you'll put into a bigger wheel with BBS centers?

    Thanks. For some reason I thought they'd stop making that pattern years ago.

    Got a few things done, in regards to the build:
    1: Headlight harness being built for H1/H4 LED.
    2: In a separate deal, All markers, turn signals and taillights will be LED. Tails will be sequential turn.
    https://classicleds.com/
    3: Got 5 lug rear axles (Ranger). Will be handing over to my buddy that is building my 8.8.

    That's awesome! I have been looking into doing the sequential tail lights for both my Capri and my 82 GT that is going to use the Capri tail lights. I am interested in how all your lights turn out that will be cool! Congrats!
