Red Baron S197 3V GT gets some updates

 Brent did some composite repairs and made some canards for his buddy Ashley (aka "The Godfather" of stick axle track stangs) and in return he scored some new goodies. AMR 18x10 wheels with Nexen 275/40/18 200tw tires (very used), Corbeau FX1 seat and roll bar. The roll bar will be later as its quite the commitment to obsolete the rear seats. The wheels were put on today. I think it looks great! Silver wheels really are eye catching and allow the wheel design and spokes to really stand out.



The new Corbeau is actually a size slightly smaller so Brent swamped his to the passenger side and put the new one in the drivers location. Brent has lost about 70 lbs since buying the seat a couple years ago. Weight savings! Add lightness!


The interior is looking great with the black buckets and Sparco/Ford Racing alcantara steering wheel, very track focused! 

What do y'all think about the silver AMR wheels compared to the SVE 19x11s in dark grey/charcoal? I The dark wheels are certainly mean looking! The bright silver wheels are a great contrast and look very "track car". If you answered "both" you are correct, sir! heh heh
