    Great looking car! And the wheels are perfect. Do you have bullet lug nuts too? It's hard to tell with the reflection.

    Sweet ride, I'm jealous!

    I am in love with that car. Perfect wheel/tire combo for it, Moriarity.

    As an aside...do you happen to know what the headlight rings came off of? Also, is the color a metallic, pearl or candy? It look pretty close to the color I'm planning on shooting a car I'm working on.

    I like everything about that car...it makes me want a '55.

    It is an old custom, built in 1961 by Paul Savelesky, he restored the car just before he passed away, I bought it from his widow. It had the wrong wheels and tires on it when I got it. I cant take any credit for the rest of it. The headlight rings are from a 59 impala
