tta with aftermarket wheels

A while back there was a tta on ebay with simmons wheels (i think gold) and baer brakes. I did a search and found it, but the link was not working anymore. I believe the car had like 21,000 miles. I was just wondering if I somebody could find and post a picture of it for my reference.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

You mean Heath Elmer's car, right? Mike S asked this about a week or 2 ago and I posted the info in another thread.

I also saved all the info in a Microsoft Word document if you need it.

Could you post some of the specs on the car from your word document? I am interested in seeing specific suspension components and exact wheel sizes etc etc. Thanks.

Can somebody send me these pics...please?

I vaguely remember the car from Ebay. I thought the wheels were really cool, but did not have the sense to write down what they were or save the pictures. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,
Dave

My email is dgormley@westernforms.com

Did anyone ever get pics of Heath's car? If anyone has them could you email them to me.

I'm thinking of doing the Simmons wheels but would love to see a set first.

My email is paccio@sbcglobal.net.

Thanks for any help guys

Phil

There is a thread in the lounge showing his car. The wheels look sweet.

I just got in on the group purchase for the Simmons wheels
