You're welcome!

My cockatiel loves popcorn also. I also got my front disc brake conversion kit. I also got a quote for 4 tires for the '61 $400.00 for all 4 I am going to get quotes other tire shops also and compare prices. I decided to get them locally to save money and get the portal walls from Lucas classic tire

I had it done at home by a relative to save money. I also have a rule about that steering wheel your hands must be clean before touching it

I had my 61 deluxe, (aero), wheel recast at D & D restorations in NC. Cost was $1300.00.
Steph's wheel looks great too.
