Not sure how long it will last, I don't know if it's made out of Aluminum, Zinc, Magnesium or what. Anybody know what kind of metal these centers are?
It's a '61 Impala Wheel. The black paint is just rattle car black epoxy from Wal Marx
I was being a perfectionist and re- painted the center of this steering wheel twice and still wasnt happy. Then I decided to get out some 1500...
Hell yeah! 2 birds stoned with one joint...Oh, wait. Nevermind.
Never say never.
I keep seeing all these threads started about 4drs being cool. 2 doors can be just as cool as 4drs. Take any year of car and 99.9% of them were...
Done.
I like 4drs and 2drs. I'm a little partial to 2drs but if it looks cool I don't give a shit how many doors it has. There are some body styles that...
You'll Have that.
Just thought of a few more I'd love to have 3 are mercs, 2 are 4drs. 4dr mercs look way cooler chopped to me than 2dr mercs do. If I had a 2dr mer...

Yeah, I planned on putting the lihts behind the mesh. I like where this is going. Maybe time to start considering some front end treatments as well
Heres the best i can come up with using the crappy ms paint program.
Yeah, its just an idea though. doesn't necessarily have to be like that but it would be kool. It's too dark to get a pic of the rear of the actual...
Ok, heres a less vague idea with some red lines. I like the upper fin treatment, that's exactly what i had in mind. The car I'm working on is...
I just think we should all deflate our egos a bit and remember why HAMB is here in the first place.
Ok, heres the deal, I'm working on a '60 Chevy with my step son that needs a bunch of rust repair. I figure thats a reason to go kustom with it....
Some of mine. I can't find my coll ones, but these are ok.
