Hi Truespoke.
Thanks for the help selecting your packaged brake
system. I received my delivery on Friday.
I love the wheels and tires on my 1963. Really makes
my car pop. Bob Duggan. |

Hello Truespoke.
"I earned First Place in
the Pageant of the Thunderbird. Those wheels
didn't hurt." Jack Wells

Thunderbird - Owner: Mr. Kurt Burroughs
"Of all our projects, this is by far my favorite.
But it didn't start that way. I didn't even choose
it. In fact, I had no love for this car at all. And
the back story of how this car came to be, would
explain why we all felt it was a curse. But the more
time we spent on it, the more the curse lifted. It
was built to be a driver. While the body remain
factory original, the color is our own creation. The
drive train is all late model hardware consisting of
a 4.6l aluminum modular motor, and electronic over
drive tranny. The original gauges are all linked
electronically to the new power and work flawlessly,
including the speedometer. A custom adaptor attaches
the original steering wheel to a tilt column that
controls a totally custom power rack and pinion
steering. A front sump oil pan and custom engine
crossmember allowed enough clearance for the new
steering. A nine speaker sound system, with amp and
battery hidden under the car, keeps us in tunes. The
sound system is linked to a custom fabbed, 5th
generation I-pod, with navigation, that mounts in
the original ashtray location. But somehow, we still
manage to get lost occasionally. The car
consistently averages 23 mpg, with the 400 hp Ford
racing build motor. To reel the power back in, we
incorporated power disc front brakes with a dual
reservoir master cylinder. Rear discs are on the
schedule before spring. It also has a one inch front
sway bar, rear sway bar, KYB shocks on all corners,
and a 2 inch lower ride height. The only thing we
needed to give up was the glove box. Which now
houses the computers needed to control it all. There
a few kinks to work out yet. Nothing to major. Just
a couple of things to make it truly a dependable,
comfortable, driver. Thanks again for the help, and
listening to the boring ramblings of a mad man. Kurt

"I finally
got your beautiful wire wheels on the car back
in November and always get admiring looks and
comments. The custom caps are exactly what I
envisioned when I first contacted you back in
December 2012. Feel free to use the images on
your website." Mr. Reese Burgoyne

"Thought you
would like to know that my 1955 Thunderbird took
first place again in the annual 2013 Pageant of the
Thunderbird show. Those fine wheels helped again.

I used your wheels
for another of the cars I have restored,
that was a 57 T-bird. Now I just bought a 56
Mercury convertible that I will restore for
myself and when time comes I might order a
set of these wheels for it as well. I just
love the look and quality. Thanks, Gry A

Chuck
and Donna Kirby of Oregon sent us this photo of their striking 1957
Thunderbird with our Truespoke wire wheel package.
We appreciate Mr. and Mrs. Kirby displaying their car without the fender
skirts. Permitting a better viewing of the wire wheels. Great
looker!
"We
are going to leave the fender skirts off our car. The wheels
are too nice to hide. Thanks again for all of your help
during the buying process and for the beautiful wheels you
guys created. A car hop at the local A&W here in Sweet Home
asked us what kind of mileage our T-Bird got (after we put
the new wheels on). We told her it gets a hundred smiles per
gallon in the city. Thanks again for everything. Chuck and
Donna Kirby."

Mr. Clyde Cherry of Zanesville, Ohio
sent us this collection of photos of his Concours 1958
Thunderbird convertible. The wire wheels compliment this car
dramatically. Note that Mr. Cherry is not running his fender
skirts. Owning a 1958 ourselves, we think the open wheel
well look is very appealing and naturally, you can see more
of our wire wheels that way. Check out the photos of this
highly-detailed beauty.

- Mr. Jack E. Wells sent us this photo of his
outstanding 1955 Thunderbird equipped with wire wheels from
Motorspot, Inc. The tire size is: P205/75R15 and the
whitewall stripe measures 2.5". This classic beauty is a
real show-stopper. Although originality counts, it is very
hard to top the elegance of real wire wheels with wide
whitewall tires over the original hubcaps. Mr. Wells is from
Laverne, California. The '55 just completed an extensive
ground-up restoration and has already earned one Best of
Show award at the prestigious Enderle show in Tustin,
California. Good work!
