New Project.....

[Turbonium]

I tested out Shakin's Mach I wheels on the Valiant, here are the before and after pictures. Also would like some suggestions on paint color, I've been thinking flat black because it's cheap, easy, and durable. I did a horrible quick photoshop of what it looks like all black. Let me know what you think.

Wheres the PS?

[88leadsled]

I would say no on the flat black without seeing the photoshop. Save up some and paint it glossy, it will look much better and not be as hot.

[brandboZ28]

The Mach wheels look good! I like the flat black idea too.

[LincolnLSCVII]

you know im a fan of flat black

[SteedaRR]

looks great to me....no on the flat black.. not on that car....

[Turbonium]

The PS didn't work right. I'm thinking normal glossy black or dark blue.

[oneslowstang]

That's a nice lookin car with the wheels... I saw no on the flat black also.... I love black, but I think if I went to paint it I would do a different color.... Like a Dark Blue or something.

[04ctsvfl]

wheels look real good......I would do a semi-flat or semi-gloss I think thatd look best

[Osceola16]

Looks good. Dont know about the black though....

Now for the ride height......8)

[sstony]

wheels look good. you should go for an old school yellow paint

[slmdLS1]

looks good bobby...what are the complete plans for the car? drivetrain? race/show?

[MustangMan]

Like what Osceloa16 did, slam that bitch to the ground! Looks cool with the mach wheels on it.

[Turbonium]

The damn 40 year old slant six runs so good now and is ridiculously cheap to fix (like $11 for a waterpump) that I will keep it in there for now. I have to pick up a 360 from Kenny soon and start rebuilding it on the side. But just want to get it cleaned up, painted and cruise around. Figured if I'm going to have a play car it might as well be something different.

Thanks for the ride hight chop Osceola, that's definetly in the works too.

But just want to get it cleaned up, painted and cruise around.

[tibster]

Looks good bro! Hope all goes well! :towelie:

[TurboStutr]

wheels look good, when you lower it, just give it a little bit of that old school rake...should look pretty nice.

[Greg Kulbick]

Eh, I think keep it level, but close to the ground. One vote against the rake here.

[SATAN]

Put a nice rake on it and a chrome chain link steering wheel in it then everyone will think you're Mexican instead of Cuban and you will instantly get more rights in this country.
