      Rushforth cross the Atlantic...

      The Netherlands that is. If the guys from Driverzinc, http://www.driverzinc.com/ , say they deliver in 4 weeks door to door they do, even international. To be exact 3 weeks and 5 days.
      I was just blown away with the overall quality and design, very sweet! Service is also top level.
      The rims are 18x8 and 18x9, tires will be 245/40 and 275/40

      The car:





      The rim



      And of course the money shot, euro style



      Which will finance the tires tomorrow.
      thanks again Jon!!

      Wow, very nice, those will look great on your Bird!!!! You must have gotten a great deal, considering how much the dollar SUCKS right now vs. the Euro! I'm looking at your 500 Euro bill and thinking, "Damn, that's almost $800 here!"

      Thanks Steve,

      I remember the times it was the other way around back in the 80's. Don't forget shipping is killing is nowadays and on top of that we got a very bad tax environment overhere. But hey, a man needs a hobby right LOL.
      The 500 should cover for the tires ( I hope ).

      Looking good Cliff! Car will benefit when you do lower it too like we talked about. Be sure to post before and after photos of your newer lower stance when that is done. Roll on!

      Thats what I am talking about!
      Now it is called a real pro-touring ride.
      Too many TTII's in the world. Rushforth makes a difference.

      Cliff, you have to come down about 2 inches though. u just have to put some boards in your garage to get out
      Just throw them in the car when you go for a spin in case you run into a speed bump
