oil leak
 
should i leave wheels alone or polish the lips? I think i am too old school not to polish the lips. I like the bling, but my buds tell me to leave it alone.

leave them as they are,IMHO,they look nice that way on silver car

I like your thinking!!! lol

i had a exhaust leaks at the headers and decided to tear the car down and do the suspension/firewall while i was at it... o and the int.lol

i say polish!!!! youve got plenty of chrome trim to go with polished lips.

i knew it would be like this. i can go either way on the wheels. the brushed look is very trendy right now but the polish is more timeless. I guess i can always polish them later. thanks for the input and keep it coming.

HA! I took the trans out of my 67 in 02 to fix the front seal in the trans. It was leaking badly. Needless to say, I have still yet to put that darn trans back in. Great looking build!

I know what your talking about on going alittle overboard.

A blown motor turned into a complete build for me.

engine bay looks good though

wow your car looks gooood,and a 69 to boot,to answer your pm here,was going to shoot the hoses in behind the fender to hide them as much as possible,i think you should polish them if YOU like them that way,as far as what everyone else thinks:willy: . i've learned (%#@ :rofl: them do what you like ).your car will look bad a$$ either way your wheels are.
