Projects need some ideas

Heres a picture of my car with copper wheels I'm thinking of painting the rims Black with either baby moons & rings or black with the chrome lugs & rings
Or repainting the rims copper again & running baby moons!!
now 2 questions?
1) can anyone "photoshop" it with black rims?
2) I need some oppinions on it.
Thanks

Like the copper color but would ditch the wide trim rings, pinstripe the center and put on some hubcaps. Hubcaps, not wheelcovers.

 

I too like the copper (matches the motor rite?). Looks good

 

black wheels...


...and chrome wheels (had trouble getting the right perspective for the front wheel, but it will at least give you an idea)

 

...I'm fond of the chrome baby moons, by the way

 

I vote black with narrow trim rings or pin stripe with baby moons!

 

I vote copper with spyder caps or baby moons...black makes it look like every other t-bucket out there...

 

I really like the copper with baby moons , but will settle for the chrome reverse and moons if I have too !

 

Your not going to like me but paint them the same color as the flames RED and get rid of the gold valve covers. Too much gold. Oh yeah baby moons.

 

it looks killer the way it is.

 

My sentiments exactly! It's not every day that you see copper wheels and motor... and it really works!

 

Ditto

 

I was thinking along the same lines, but I would dye the interior gold and either lose the flames all together or add something gold there, gold flames or a gold scallop.

The red interior/flames and the gold wheels/engine are what's throwing me off. Although really it's not bad as-is.

 

Looks good w/ gold & baby moons.

 

I like it with the copper, although I would accent the flames and interior with some copper stripping and knobs or something to bring it all together. The baby moons would go great! Although, I dont think I would go so far as to dye the upholstery, that seems like it would be too much.

 

Okay, so maybe, just maybe, you've got too much color going on...like I said, maybe:d

 

Baby moons are good but I think the tires is the problem. They need to be very thin white walls or just black with more of a big/little thing going on.

 

Copper wheels. blackwalls, little caps.

Sweet "T"!

 

The wheels are OK but your flames need some attention in my book.

 

It had red rims & engine at one time, i keep changing it.Heres a picture

 

Flames are staying.

Yeah. I'm having trouble getting past the flames. The rest of the car looks well thought out, and they look like an afterthought.

 

I always hope when I ask for advise on the hamb that people are brutally honest
I would get rid of those flames or have them painted to accent the body
They look like stick on vinyl
And trash the radial tires otherwise it’s a cool car with gold or red wheels

Flames where painted on when the body was painted, My friend & i did them.If you see them in person they are really nice.i would never take them off the car.Again thats my oppinion & option!!I really appreciate all your input, this is helping me decide.
The pics do make the flames look like decals, but there not.Just done really well.
Also i would never get rid of the radials either, i drive the***** out of the car so , handling, comfort, ride & performance are important to me.I'l on my 11 season since i built it & i'm coming up on 47,000 on the oddometer.

well there you go you don't need anyones input

 

No i appreciate all the input. If you read the first post i ask about the rims. Nothing else & almost everyone was very helpful.
So maybe its your "input" i don't need!!All the others i'm listening to.

Copper wheels with the chrome rings and chrome spiders.
I like the copper engine and wheels too.

 

ya what he said...

 

i like the more plain look of black wheels with no trim rings.
