    Your car looks pretty solid. Wish some of my first cars looked as good. What are your plans for her? And if it was me, I'd tone down the wheels a bit. Maybe some narrow rings, or small caps. Oh and check into getting her aligned since you lowered her. Just a thought...ghost

    I like the 4 door no-wait, looks good.

    I think that the mini trim rings from WHEELKID would look good. When I put them on my '62 it mellowed the color of the wheels a bit, made them look more connected to the car instead of a BULLHORN! of color.

    Hey youve started a new trend. Black flatz and red wheels. I wonder if this will catch on....

    Good job. My 13 year old son just bought a 4-door '62 Bel Air project for his first build. Your pics will provide some great inspiration for him. Right now, he wants to shave, nose/deck, lower, flake the roof and paint the rest gloss black or deep maroon. I want him to work toward the goal, but also survive the 2,000 or so hours of sanding he has to get through first!

    Got one just like it that I am starting on this month. Plan is black from the trim up, bright red below the trim, and spyder caps.

    McFly... was looking at your album. I never expected to see THAT engine in that innocent looking '62. ;)

    Got some questions on your nifty radio delete plate. Will be sending a PM. :)
