Wheels

Put my wheels on this past weekend, after rebuilding the front end. I cant decide if I want a pinstripe on it or not. What do you guys think. Maybe a single thin light gray one th match the interior?

Thumbs up

Those rims look good on that truck.

I think a pinstripe would look good.

Wheels look good

I wouldnt do a pinstripe unless it was going to be under the clear which prevents it from fading or being waxed/buffed off with certain cleaners. Besides I think your truck looks great as is.

Your truck looks great as it is, but I think a pin stripe might look a little better.

im a big fan of pinstriping if the car warrants it, and frankly your truck is a gorgeous piece of machinery. I would do a dual pinstripe prolly fire engine red andthe light grey or a darker grey than the truck is. My one truck is dark grey and i did a light grey with the fire engine red and its really nice. If i can i will post pics to give you ideas.
the celar coat idea is also a good one
If ya do it let us see more pics and in either eent please post more pics that is a really sweet job... i hope my 76 turns out as well when i get it done

Looks Great !!!!

Toolboy the truck looks great, I am planning on the same wheels for my truck to. I am going with a little wider tire than you did. I was thinking of going with the Michelen LTX 285 x R16. I am glad I got to see your truck really makes me want to get mine ASAFP.
