It looks very good, could we see a side view?

Oh, now you know I need a set of those!  But in 1/6 scale for the 10" Howie you made me.  Sweet.  Are they dished?  But I like them either way.

How much for 10"?  And will there be an axle bushing inside, or we can do our own.

I have to temporarily suspend the wheel line . My partner Jeff seems to have some unfinished business from a few years back .   I don't want to go into detail until I know more . Douglas , yours will be ready as soon as I get a key to the house . No more wheel  sales until I get more details . Sorry . Ed
