Title: JP Wheels
Post by: RobtheManx on January 31, 2011, 22:08:10 pm
Hi Everyone

I have a set of four lug Swedish JP rims in 14 inch , I think they're nice wheels , what do you guys think ?

Can I get away with them on a Late / 67 Looker ?  I was thinking  a dechromed , bright red bug with buggy nudge bars and a white glass pack muffler .

Cheers , Rob

Thanks guys

Its for my wife , she has a 74 bug , been sat in bits for a long time . I'm moving into a nice big workshop soon so am determined to get it done , but on a tight budget .

It has discs at the minute so I got to check if the wheels will fit . I don't like the vents behind the rear side windows on late cars , so I thought I might cover them with a pair of EMPI style scoops , which I have moulds for .

Also , I have a long  Aronson deck lid , which is a terrible fit . So was going to cut the vent off and fit onto the late deck lid . Did they ever do I late Aronson style lid ? I know they did a 67 one .

Cheers , Rob
