Yeh I know, me too! But for what I have planned for it, I couldn't justify keeping the Foose wheels, and having the Welds. So I sold the Foose'.

I like them both. Wheels are like shoes, you can have more than 1 pair. You wouldn't go running in dress shoes!

I bought the car from my buddy. The front bumper is off of a red car, and he had a shitty body shop paint it. Oh, it needed a bumper because he put it through a house!!
