Default For '55 Chevy fans...

I really like the Fikse wheels that I'm told is what Dale Jr. has on his Camaro. They give the look I want on a '55 Chevy project I'm starting. Allkar did some nice work adding the wheels and giving the '55 Nomad rear quarter look to this image I had. It's not my car but has the 2 tone paint effect which I may want to incorporate, just not that green.

After



And way after!

Al the photoshop artist who worked on this project added a yellow I want to make this to stand out and added the smooth style bumper.



I'll call it either Project BeStung or Project RumbleBe -

I agree! Gives it a nice updated look without being too modern!

Those wheels look great, especially with the yellow and black.

This is my friend Tom Simmons 55 Convert that I built some one-off wheels for. We thought about doing the centers black but he opted for all polished.

Wow..Tom Simmons vert.

Another chop someone did.

Don't think I've seen this shade gold/copper ever with the black.
