• What's on my work bench and opinions needed. PICs
  • WOW!! *NM*
    • Thanks *NM*
  • 32 kick butt................Mercedes love the color transition ....................... Impala 2 or 3 great look *NM*
    • Thank you, I think I am leaning to #3 *NM*
  • Nice. Number 2 or 3 gets my vote. *NM*
    • Thanks, I just needed to see if #1 was going to get any votes but I think it is #3 for me. *NM*
  • Love the 3 Window, frankly, not a fan of the big wheel so, guess I don't have an opinion on the wheel options. I look forward to the 32 finished though. *NM*
    • I would normally put chrome reverse or craigers on a car like this but with the Foose influance I thought the larger wheels fit it pretty good and #3 leans more to a 60s looking rim. *NM*

      • I get it, like they say, your model build it like you like it. *NM*
  • I vote for number 1 . The whitewalls make the car stand out. *NM*
    • I agree. That is why I am having a dilemma. I like the white walls but being a Foose inspired kit I was trying to honor that style. Now that the count is 2 vs 2 I might have to rethink my decission for #3. *NM*
  • The last ones. , , Wide whitewalls don't belong on anything built after 1962. *NM*
    • I've always been a rule breaker but I will probably go with #3. *NM*
    • I bow to your wisdom. Normally, I fight the man made rules when it comes to what should and should not be done to cars but I mocked up the 65 with thin whites and you are absolutely right. I liked them much better and now the wide whites just look wrong. *NM*
      • Wide whites were out of favor by 1965. *NM*
        • I think on a scale of 1 to100 and one being shaving the door handles and 100 being those horribly customs than make all of us through up, wide whites on a post 62 is about a 3. It not be accepted but it's not really that bad. Right? *NM*
    • And that's being generous - I'd push that back a year or two, they were getting thinner every 6. months
  • Option #2 works best, IMHO! *NM*
  • #1 wheels, BUT with "black wall" tires. Not really a Foose fan. But then, I'm not a "car guy" by any stretcth of the imagination either. *NM*
  • I would use #3 *NM*
