Relentless yes.

Those Champions look very nice.

Champion P/A filed for bankruptcy protection recently but I read it will not affect the parts and wheel division.

I read that too - their wheels are cold forged for strength and very light.

My last P-Car had a set and I had to get a set for this one too.

These are a derivative of the Speedline America Corp (SAC) wheels that Champion purchased after SAC failed.

These are the SAC's on my car.

Here's SAC's original web page someone keeps hosting!

I forgot that I once knew that - Speedline, haven't heard that name in a while...

Luis and Monica just left - my car looks SPECTACULAR!

They said they would meet up with us on the 6th.

So here's a bit of trivia for you.

I was the original US Speedline importer in 1975.

They were one piece cast wheels then and my products liablity carrier said the policy just for the wheels would be $10,000.00/year at that time!

I gave up the distribution after a year because of this.

Wow - very interesting info.

Has anyone used him for dent removal? I haven't had a chance to read through the whole thread. Thanks, he sounds like the guy for touch up paint though.

I like Luis the few times I have met him and I plan on giving him a call to clean up a couple of undercarriage spots on my Z, just need to find a place he can plug into in my parking garage...

If he can match the color of your 360 Greg, I am sure he will be able to work wonders with my Pearl White.
