Thanks everybody!  I'm very happy with how it came out. No more rust!  Lol  I had a toolmaker at work make the 468 badges for  me on the CNC. It only took 2 Years to get em to do it. Lol

Thanks! I  welded in new wheel centers in my 15" rims. I wanted to keep the overall width close to what I had w/ D60.  I think it's about 7" of back spacing, almost centered in the wheel.  I think Ouverson makes an 8 lug hub, but I think they're $500 ea!
