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.

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
