Well here is my ride with aftermarket rims taken from my old car. Think I should put back the original or new rims.

My 1996 Miata:



and the 1946 Crosley Coupe that's parked inside the garage:



The Crosley is a restoration project that's moving verrrrry slowly. And it's much smaller than it looks in this photo.

Those old rims were taken from my olf maxima. I still kept the 3 series BMW because it was a bday gift from my parents when I was younger so it has a sentiment value even though i should really sell it. The maxima was a 1995 maxima that I got used when I had too much trouble with the bmw

I second that, that's a piece of automotive history!

and GTi-VR6_A3 thanks for the kind words. After reading this month's Sport Compact Car and how well a near stock EVO VII did, I can not wait to get my car. Oh man waiting and waiting. To be honest, my 337 is the least favorite car I have ever owned. I want to sell it, I'm waiting for an RX-8. But now I'm considering a 350z too, or possible a US spec EVO. Decisions, decisions.

Thanks, guys! Admittedly, I was a little hesitant to post the Crosley photo here -- it is pretty odd!

The Crosley has a 44-cubic-inch inline four-cylinder engine that produces a whopping 26.5 horsepower. It has a full-crash, non-synchro three-speed transmission, and cable-operated brakes.

Basically, it's a good thing that the engine's so tiny, because it doesn't stop very well!

It spent most of its life before me on an estate, where it was the "gardener's car." It came up for sale in an estate auction, and I ended up with it. After a month or so I got it running, and have been tinkering with it ever since.

My father worked at the Crosley factory in Indiana for a few months after getting out of the Navy following WWII.
