Looked a lot better before the Colorado roads beat it up (sorry Deuce). I don't know what I was thinking when I bought those wheels. ~1993

That`s nice.Wish ya still had it?I wish I had it.Trendy wheels are like that,cool today,out of style tommorrow.I`ve been into these too long to fall for the trendy thing.Something alot have too find out on their own.That`s why alot of newer enthusiasts can`t understand why guys like me won`t go for the huge diameter rim trend.I keep my stuff for a long time.Tried`n`true works for me.I still like those wheels better than the current R/C car look.

I wouldn't mind having the truck if it were back in the condition it was in when I finished restoring it. I'm glad it was bought by someone who is taking the time to redo it and make it look nice again. I really like the look of the 67 with no sidemarkers and the small window, but I like the tough look of the '71-'72 grille/hood and I like the '72 interior, so that's the direction I'm going now.

I'm going with '80s rally wheels this time. I think they have the right "truck" look.

Sweet Ride! What Colour do ya call that?

**pjmoreland** · 02-17-2006, 04:35 PM

I think it was called Hampshire Blue or something like that. It was used on 1990 Honda Accords.
