- Fri Mar 30, 2012 10:05 pm #300426 update: well now I realize i am missing a wheel, because one of the ones that came with the car was a 4x100, freaking "A". Today I went to look at literally every single salvage yard and nobody had even one 4x120 wheel so if anyone finds one out in their salvage yards by any chance, I will buy it off of you. I am so pissed right now!!!

- Tue May 08, 2012 4:40 am #304238 sorry about no uploads guys I have been swamped with school but here is the drum on and we got it running today, I drove it around for a little, there is some wiring problems to be figured out but not much more before its up and running. then to send it off to paint and body work, but that will be a while from now.

Anyone have any opinions on what color to paint it? Back to stock color or something else?

The drum Classiccarsrule85 sent me and more pictures of it on all four wheels are to come.

- Sat May 12, 2012 3:42 am #304697 Well i must say oem colors for these are quite nice such as yellow



Though in my mind that would stand out too much i like to have that sleeper look some people notice some people dont so to speak....

definitely not the blue that these came in makes it look butt ugly the red and orange arent bad but i must say due to the hood id do a little tweaking to a oem paint job....



apparently its a silver pearl limited edition color i quite like it for sure. and given the right accents it would be a killer paint job i was thinking black pin stripes that go from teh center of the hood to the raised section of the hood and towards the end of the raised section they seperate go down through part of the fenders and continue on the rockers and (in a sort of reminiscent of shelby and other cars) have a tag displaying cvcc or other ) and thats just a thought but the silver alone would be sweet....glad to see things coming together cant wait to see more pictures for sure. and if i had a nice program such as photoshop i would be able to show you a better idea of what i was thinking of lol but yea good luck glad to see progress for sure
