mikeys toy[RL] Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I'm not sure if I want to run the mags; it looks really good with the steelies, but it looks really good with the mags. I'll let you guys make my decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7shades Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Black steelies, hubbies, and whitewalls. old skool autoporn right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeys toy[RL] Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 (edited) well; it IS gonna be flat black soon. I thought the bright mags would really go off with the dark paint. Plus; the front wheel beads are so rusty, I'm having a hard time keeping them from going flat, and they're bent slightly. mt photochop skills are nil, but here's this; photochop ................................................................................ ..................... me reworking the banged up and rusty door Edited April 3, 2007 by mikeys toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Bit hard to tell, Both wheels look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 I'd say do that red section on the door white too, red rims and whitwall tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 (edited) Red steelies, whitewall flappers. Maybe get a wheel specialist to straighten the rims and powdercoat them a bright red. Ditch the guard mirrors and get a set of peep mirrors. Â With the graphics, I reckon just scallop the front of the car to halfway up the bonnet, with the points stopping just in front of the windscreen, and maybe a third of the way along the doors. Keep where the side windows were black, and either get some mack brushes and pinstripe it, or paint some old styled aged/weathered signage on it. :D Edited April 3, 2007 by Felix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeys toy[RL] Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 I've decided not to scallop it, but I was planning to stencil "Toyota parts and service" with the old address and the original Toyota logo I got from Banjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianKE17 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Nice wagon! I dig the flat black with scallops, but i think the wheels need to be red or orange (same as the scallops) as well for a little more contrast. Oh and whitewalls or white lettering :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
