With the white rims and wide white walls the beauty ring kind of get lost. (my opinion). They would stand out much more with darker wheels and different tires, but again, that's my opinion and not something I would expect you to change.

The car is looking AWESOME. You've come a long way...

Agree. You have to look hard to even see they are there.

Most likely the last post in this thread.  Went for my first drive in the coupe today.  A few bugs to work out yet.  Clutch pedal doesn't come all the way up so the clutch isn't engaged fully until I pull it up with my foot.  Temp went to 185.  I'll have to watch it to make sure it's good there.

Had to move the coupe from the rear or (project) garage to the front parking garage before my surgery next week.  Want to the the next project inside.

 

NEXT project????

I agree Merle but I'm not changing it now.  The wheels are powder coated.

 

I am loving the hell out of that shade of green. What is it called?

 

Not that I can use it. I live up a dirt road,so I can't have dark cars.

I live up a dirt road also.   99 corvette polo green.

Well,you live up a dirt and gravel road. I live up a dirt road on an island that floods. Besides the thick coat of dust in the summer just from cars passing by,I don't want to deal with mud thrown up under the car.  Especially not since I have flexibility programs and can't bend over and sometimes can't bend my knees.
