          It'll be a little difficult too, since their car has the smaller JA1 brakes.

            chevy used the olds style rally wheels in 5x100mm pattern for a while...as did Oldsmobile for a few years, most notably on the 82-84 base cars

                Well according to the web the junkyard in Lombard has 5 blue super stocks.

                Also the car now smells like oranges. Used some goo gone to get rid of the remaining sound deadening lint stuff that was stuck in the car after we removed the carpeting and stuff. Wanted to get rid of it since I'm sure the lint would burn pretty quickly, of course goo gone is combustible so the car might currently be slightly more flammable but I'm sure it will all be evaporated before the race.

                    not a pick n pull type, more like the type where they get a bunch of cars and you go there and ask for used parts and they give them too you.

                        Lombard has a water park?

                        Oh here is the site I found the wheels at. Its actually a pretty good resource looking for parts.

                          Neat... yeah it used to be the Moran Water Park two years ago they closed it and they reopened last year as "Paradise Bay" shouldn't really call it a water park, it's mainly a glorified pool with different water slides... my mom works for the park district and she takes care of most of the pool's computer software issues. Fun stuff lol. Thanks for the website link, I might be looking for bucket seats for my ciera sometime in the near future so that should help.

                              Went to the yard today and while they were confirmed in the yard a month ago and they didn't sell them they had since painted the racks they were on and they have disappeared. They searched the yard looking for them and couldn't find them. I guess I may have to look for some regular steelies. Course if they are the Steelies I won't feel bad spray painting them to match the theme since they will be easy to spray paint back to black. SilentWing, I have the JA1 brakes so are yours the 5X100, and how much would you want for them?
