VentShade Headlight covers @ Summit for $10!

They had 6 pairs of them at Summit Racing for $10 in the junk section.  Not sure what years.  Figures that the car is a classic already!

C4 stuff would have made it too heavy for my goals.

Wagon wheels are rollers.  I'll use something like a Volk or SSR for around 18 lbs for an 18" tire from a BMW 3-series.

The V pictured above will get pulled and roll caged for a street legal track car.
