So my sheet metal will be mocked up this weekend, and I need to start on my wheels but I cannot think of a color I can settle on. I love the color of Bad Penny but I would then have the same year car and color as Steve and we live in the same county cant have that. The car was black but that's a pain to clean, any other suggestions? I need to know the color of the car to determine what color I will be powder coating the centers. Maybe candy apple red? Maybe a color with a pearl?

Help

Next on the list is the G link rear suspension, with a ford 9". Then the wheel design is still up in the air.

Ya I never thought I would be getting this deep into the body work but its a fun learning experience. I hope to have it done within the next year.
