51 has new 15" wheels, and more chrome!
Saturday, June 09, 2007 9:50 PM
Got ahold of some 15 inch wheels and I called in a favor with an old boss to get some brand new tires to match. Painted em seafoam green and tossed on the factory caps.

Next step is to get ahold of some chrome trim rings to finish em off.

Also I am almost done remounting the chrome window trim. Next up is to pull out two or three leaf springs in the rear, and possibly have a coil cut out of the front springs.

I also rebuilt the carburator, and now I am looking for a new manifold so I can mount two single barrels.

Pics when there is light outside.

Thanks guys!

Jonathan, the paint is just rattle can satin paint from wal-mart.

However, I wasnt happy with the color, so I painted the wheels again. New thread with pics soon. Maybe a mod could just merge all my threads about this car for me? Be easier to follow the progress......

Anyone?

Bueller?

sorry... can't merge threads just yet (maybe some day).

how about just starting one thread and constantly updating it like big poppa does with his widebody thread in Photos?

anywho, the car is looking amazing, nice work.
