couple more questions as the rebuild comes along...
tires -- it will be a while before i need them, but does anyone have a good idea about good performance tires for 15 inch wheels? i would really like something better than BFG's, but there doesn't seem to be much left for the 15 inch rims. i was checking out a shelby cobra site, and some of them prefer to run mickey thompson sportsman STs. i can get them from summit racing for about the same price as the BFGs. anyone know anything about these? anyone ever run them? i don't want street-slicks. i'm hoping for speed rated radials with good handling and that will hook a little.
wheels -- again, i want to keep my turbo rims, but cant find good tires. so it might sound sacrilegious, but are there any wheel makers that can make a 16 or 18 inch turbo wheel? or would this cost a mint, as i suspect? anyone ever looked into this? i could always get some cragers or other aftermarkets in any size, but i REALLY wanna keep the turbo rims.
dash-- still can't find a good dash for an '80 T/A. anyone know who might have a repro in stock? they are in all the catalogs for about $450, but whoever i call has been out for over a year with no idea when they will get more. can have mine refurbished for $1,400 !! but that's a bit out of my price range... by a lot.
i appreciate any help.
