    Orange with caps and trim rings and pin stripping the same as the yellow body.
     
  2. Now that I see the car, I would say black with the small '40 style caps and no rings.

    If it was me, I'd warm up the photoshop. See if you can put all the colors and styles you want on your. Thats the only way to REALLY be sure. Until you get board with em......Nice car by the way.

    Red.....No...Yellow.....ah WTF how about both. Been running my car like this for years. Most people don't notice because you cannot see both sides at the same time. When I built the teardrop, I had to continue the tradition. I still can't decide which I like better.

    dont paint it yellow and go from there.
     
  15. I like black wheels also.

    I have seen yellow cars with tan wheels that looked OK but you just can't go wrong with black. Maybe with a pin strip or two.

    Greg that's looks really good, black with chrome trim wheels sort of tones the yellow down a little.
