Re: Wheel painting?

I used to have a friend who was a painter who had his 32 Ford painted candy apple red and had painted the undersides of the fenders the same candy red. He told me one day that he redid the undersides about once a year. He passed away several years ago and someone bought the car but I have never looked to see if the undersides of the fenders have been maintained like he did.

I'd do it on a show only truck just for the points it might get and for the attention to detail but it might be a real challenge to keep nice if you drive it a lot.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
