saw 'em build this on rides looked much better flat black, a few of my convertables never had roofs they're overrated

wonder why nobody ever asks a guy on a motorbike what do you do when it rains

Build it your way Gary

Building cars is an individuals hobby

It could be easy to imagine this looking wrong

But with some careful planning it could be a ripsnorter

Go for it, knock there socks off

Cheers
Jeff

Ok...... I have admitted that I love the flash that Scotty did on Harko's coupe, so much that I really would like to do it on my ute. At the risk of getting shot down I have posted a pic, thought it would be ok considering that it is a ute and not a coupe.......... There will be a difference in the flash to Harko's in the fact that I will be hand forming a chrome "flash" to go over the join between the Blue and Ivory. The other change to the ute is that it will be an FB not an EK

. I have sourced all parts required including the original warranty paperwork for an FB ute that is "Lucerne Blue" hence the reason for painting it Lucerne Blue with an Ivory flash....................

These are the wheels I am looking at, they are Billet Specialties 15x10 and 15x6.

..................any feedback would be appretiated.
