can you clearify how that was done??????????

There are two ways to get your wheels more under the fenders----they sell A arm kits that are shorter and then there is choice of wheels

Biggest issue besides looks and/or handling is that when turning into a drive way over a curb the wheel can be deflected upwards getting tire into fender lip causing fender and/or paint damage----------

I wouldn't worry about the wheels being liked or not liked by anyone as they are the easist and most economical to replace components on a vehicle( unless you want to do Foose's)
Actually, I should have said PINTO front end (1974 to be exact)... sorry, I have another '34 which I recently did with my son & that has a Mustang front end...

Jerry, I will look for the A arms...

Still thinking about the Paint issue... my thought originally was to sell it to fund a new build.. I was planning on a 34 coupe, black, all steel as my project... but, maybe will just keep this one, and bring it closer to what i was going to build... would probably be a great deal less expensive! Looking at Roger's suggestion of all silver with red accent belt line & underhood red, got me to thinking about painting her all black, leaving the firewall red and underhood red and incorporating a red belt light around it... I can have the rear "swirl" pinstripe redone in red to pull it all together.
I like the idea of the red rims with small caps and I can have a thin gray line detailed on them... thoughts?

That way, I get my "new" black '34, and keep what has been a very reliable car...
hmmm
