Looks very nice Pete. I like the chromies but the deep dish rims and chrome trims are hard to go past too...... :thumbsup:

I do appreciate your work, Pete - not my cuppa tea though with the grille. Undoubtedly, you've kept all the original parts.
This is easily dis-assembled and run over a buff - you'd be surprised how that great nickel comes up on a buff... and is extremely easy to maintain once polished to a deep lustre again.

This is a very sweet car, Pete - and entirely yours to enhance as you have. My preference is for the deep dish and trim wheels but those trims (ran them for 30 years on mine) are always a concern about one popping off (been there, done that - and never found it).

Long haul runs, I'd probably go with the chromies - they look a treat too on your ute.

I don't "see" any work being done on those number plates... guess they are in good nick....?

frats,
Rosco
