It's your car and you did a good job on it,...but *damn!,...a tangerine paint job with a black vinyl top and black leather interior sure woulda been a standout. it's not too late to submit change orders!  hell we've had to suffer through this whole danged mess, I'm thinkin we have a right (read entitled, yep Obama taught me that) to request our personal color schemes. it's NOT FAIR if we don't and I have it on good authority, that's what all of our soldiers have died for I'm holding out to pick the color of the fuzzy dice from the rearview, after the rest of you pick out a color(s) for the car Dave can you make me a skookum lowrider?

I've got an '81 Caddy that would be a start on that low-rider. Purple, and a gold grille!
Price is negotiable!

Looks like the plan is coming together Sir. You are a magician my friend.

Nah!! If going old school I'd go slotted aluminums. I'm actually considering slots. (seriously) I have a soft spot for them. It's an association thing for me, like how certain smells are tied to certain memories. I see those slots and it takes me back to the 70�s when I was a kid riding my little pedal bike around and gawking at all the muscle cars rolling around� Slots were pretty popular back in the day. ![[Linked Image]](http://image.chevyhiperformance.com/f/chevy-high-performance-magazine/us-mags/30713233/us-mags-1.jpg) Prescribe the correct size and backspacing for the car and I think it would look pretty awesome. But, so would "cop wheels" or a dozen different verieties of the 5 spoke including the cragar SS and torq thrusts.

Ran aluminum slots on the Challenger in the 70's. Liked them with a high polish look. The new ones with a clear coat on them would be easier to keep the mirror finish with.
Just remembering how high they had to jack the rear ends up to fit the n50's on the car.

Right, you almost need to pull the rear leaf shackle bolts and let the axle hinge down off the front leaf eyes to get them in there. lol

I've always been partial to the looks of Torque Thrusts. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cjponyparts.com/images/265/W365-V.jpg) When I think of wheels from the 70's, I think of Keystone Klassics. They were hugely popular when and where I grew up. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forums/attachments/classic-tech/59311d1232343725-keystone-classic-wheels-searching-keystone-classic-boyd.gif)

Just how big was that Naga?
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.
