The trim ring is an interesting thought. I have wheel vintiques 8" ralley's. I have the rounded rings that I don't think are correct. Was thinking of swapping them out.
I don't think it would be the suspension as the squeak is with the rotation of the tire.
I also have a clunk in the rear when I take off hard. Oil leaks coolant leaks exhaust drone Rides like a hay rack. Harmonic balance to change out because of a wobble in the pulley. front end bounces around. I think its because I dont' have the front cocktail shakers in. 1/4 window seal came off and window needs adjusted. Hood that stick up on the driver side Need to re-glue the door badges on putting in a 10"Continental converter Tail pipes rattle against the rear 1/4. Really loud with the top up.
I'm thinking I'm not going to get to drive it much this year.
