Borrani of Fergat?

Here I am another step closer to having the car. All four wheels and tires mounted, cleaned, and a uniform color. I have two Borrani and two Fergat wheels, plus another Borrani that was rusted through. The hubcaps cleaned up with 0000 steel wool and dish soap, the wheels were wire brushed (with the twins looking on!) and spray painted with $3 paint just to get them to be one color.
I really need to thank Mike from Atlanta for the tires. They turned out to be just what I needed. The helpfulness of the AlfaBB members is best told by their works!
Remember, these are just so I can roll the car onto the trailer this Thursday or Friday.
Thanks a lot for everything so far.

One more close up.
Thanks again Mike in ATL and the guys at Beattie's Auto Service in Augusta, Georgia.
The pieces are falling into place...
Yes, that is 6" heart pine flooring in the barn!

Careful there Jay!!!
You don't want to push Dan down that Dark Path toward Resto-ration.

Looks like I am already headed there; I WASHED the car Thursday and actually wiped down the dash, steering wheel and column, and gauge cluster with a damp rag yesterday!
