I'll probably get used to it... just looks funny to me with the auto-trans lever sticking up so much. The larger factory wheel hid that better.
The Ford logo was a little off center in the photo... I took care of that, can't be having a crooked logo, I might get road rage!

Yep... I think the model name is Challenger or something like that. A Fleabay special!

It looked like it, or a real good knock off!

Seems to be decent quality... all the parts of the mounting kit were pretty solid too.

The Grants have been around a long time and they were always very vehicle specific!

Good morning Trent! Lucky guy getting snow! We might get some flurries...
I think this model Grant looks pretty similar to the optional Ford sport wheel, tried to get one of those off ebay, but the prices were out of site.

I have to get a new one too, but mine will be OEM, just under $400 without the airbag!

Same here, we've had a few brush fires around the area... it's bone dry.

It's been pretty good as far as keeping things moist, but the lack of snow will be bad for the reservoirs that depend on the run off in spring!
