    Right now I'm working on having my dealership just swap wheels with me so I can have the stock ones for my car. Worse comes to worse, yes, I'll just buy a cheap set of wheels so I can have something immediately, but it's really not something to be concerned about. That's the honest answer.

    Well, I FINALLY got me a car. It was $900.00 and in decent shape. It is a 1987 Chevy Cavalier z24. I LOVE the looks of it and the challenge of restoring it/modding it. It has a 2.8 liter V6, 5 speed manual and a factory fiberglass cowl induction hood. May not be what a lot of you would drive but its all good. Here are some pics.

    Now, I've already started tearing out some of the interior so you'll have to excuse the center console being gone.

    Not to start anything but are you saying that the wheels you currently own will go on another vehicle that is currently on the lot to be sold to someone? Personally, I wouldn't put that cracked wheel on ANY car I would be selling. That's a huge safety issue and to sell the car knowing it has a defective wheel without mentioning it to the interested party is wrong, IMO. I hope you prove me wrong.

    This is my fault for not clarifying hah
    My sales managers know about the crack in the wheel. I pointed it out when the car first got to the dealership. Unfortunately, I bought it under "as-is no warranty" (except for what was left of factory warranty), so they couldn't replace it. They'll replace the wheel if they decide to swap with me. The crack really isn't all that bad either, to be honest. I don't know if I over exaggerated it when I first mentioned or something, but it's nothing to really worry about.
    But to answer your question, no...we wouldn't sell a car with a cracked wheel to a customer. We'd replace it before it went back out on the lot.

    And they basically have the same car that I have on the lot except it's black instead of grey. So, I'd just be getting the stock Detroits off the car.

    Doubtful. Its hit and miss here in Newnan. Some nights there's a decent turnout, others not so much. This will be the first time out for me since last July when the Shitbox broke.

    Nice meeting you guys last night! I got lucky on the way home and didnt get pulled over. Even made it through two cops pulled over on both sides of 154 without getting a ticket! I'm working on the exhaust today to remedy that issue.

    Steve, this is probably a stupid question but do you have an account with AWE-Tuning? If so I'll start going through you instead of them directly.

    For knowing anything about that and actually admitting to it by posting it on a public forum, I demand that you tear up your man card.

    Anyone who communicates with me via text, I just had my phone replaced and don't have any iCloud backups, therefore I don't have any contacts or anything until I get home later tonight.
