Talking Oldsmobile Toronado
I like most of us have a project car, mine is a 67 Toronado, running 455, mild cam etc, all new , rebuilt t425, body has been back to steel, is now painted deep green mica, all new chrome, new interior in two tone grey. We are getting down to the finishing straight, as the vehicle is not original, being rhd, we are going to fit after market wheels 18s maybe. I have done a disc brake upgrade for it, the big problem is the so called off set. from the bolt flange face to the rear of the standard wheel rim is 15cm, also the new wheel will need to be high strength remembering these cars are front wheel drive and weigh in at 1900kg, look forward to hearing any advice...I have a 66 Toronado body for sale if anybody is interested make a cool low rider...
