Trying to decide if it would be a good idea to have gold wheels on an off white car???
I have chevy pattern centre lines, was wondering if i should get them gold anodised.
Cheers,
Rob.

I found this photos. Personaly, I like gold wheels with white car.
As far as I remember, Ole (owner of Pink Panther and here on this lounge) has DDS and Erco gold anodized wheels.
Their is also a blue early 60's cal look with gold erco in a Volksworld magazine but I don't have the magazine with me yet.

I'll have a look to see if I can find a picture, but Andy Spikolman (sp) oval was a cool white cae with gold five spokes. Pretty sure it was in hot vws in the 90's

Hey Shubee, do you have other photos of your 69 bug? I'm in love with it. It makes me want to have a later bug.
How was the interior? what about the engine? really nice car

Wow that looks so right! I am a little concerend though as the ones I have seen with gold Erco/Centerlines/race wheels seem mainly to be red or blue cars, but surely it would look ok on an off white car. Cheers, Rob. |

I remember that day when Henry was racing his car. I was standing close to the photographer when that was taken. God, I miss O.C.I.R. Spent a lotta time there.

This is the car that recently sold on here I think, but I don't think it has the gold wheels any more! I like it with those wheels. I am not sure though if with my project it will look too much having body colour, chrome, gold, ali etc, maybe too many things to clash. Rob. |
