HAHA no not THAT kind.  It was a Reynolds Food Packaging plant.  They made plastic containers.  We got a few pieces of equipment from it when it closed.  Sucked since all the directions were in French.

PLastics?  injection molded or vacum formed,i was in the buisness for over 15 years,and an injection molder,and moved on to mold and die maker.
renolds sounds familiar...i think they were famous for the renolds wrap..

[N PRGRES]

Yes same company as Renolds Wrap.  We did thermoforming, not injection molding.

For me 18's are the top, should not go over.
With that said, there are a few cars that ive seen (20 in back, 18's on front) that are done correctly and professionally that make the cars look great. Now if you put 20+ on all 4's just because you think it looks cool with hardly any rubber showing then that is your preference but obviously you're ride will suffer, but who cares as long as you think you look good.

how about some black chrome splitters (to match wheels) on this bird?

Does anyone have pics of the mentioned splitter?

Correct me if im wrong but didnt hammer have these splitters on his car.

the 76 S.e cars had black chromed splitters I believe. Bones may have a set...don't know for sure.

[Mongo]

Only a hand full of cars had them and neither Hammer or Bones have them IIRC.

[Pacman]

Yea this 1979 T-A something else lol Way to much right here! But the car is clean but the the iroc 24's are killing it...

[BONES]

Correct Mongo - neither Hammer or Bones have the very rare black chrome splitters (boy I wish I did).  I believe George Holt does.  I've seen them on a couple cars at the NATS - they're awesome looking.

I love that Mark Donohue AMX in the background

Those rims are ugly but at least they saved a bird.  Sadly though since this is probably not a TA lover that owns it, it will be driven into the ground then towed off to the junk yard.

I got some pictures of my friends chevelle's I work on in the pass few years. The first is a 70 SS on 22in forgiato with a 502 ram jet very fun car to build. Next is 71 chevelle with 22in asanti I got a picture of it today nice cars. But I found some more trans am's on rims so let me know what you guys think of the T-A.
