If it starts to rain, they'll tax the splash.
If you want to fish, they'll tax the bass.
If you plant a yard, they'll tax the grass.
If you don't play nice, they'll fine your *$#!

Very nice.
I'd put the earlier turbine-style Grand Marquis wheels on myself.

Nice JC
but I'm an old school deep dish kinda guy myself.
I got some original Centerlins on mine.
I was told by the folks at Centerline that these rims were discountinued for FORD trucks some 15 or 20yrs ago.

Thanks IceMan.
I bought a '72 Bumpside in the late '90s and they were on it. They're pretty dirty in that pic. Need to get some Eagle1 mag cleaner.
