Fresh wheels from Weidman's

[cjannelli]

After looking at these for the last two weeks, finally had the nerve
to install.

RSR's always look great. Congrats.

[cjannelli]

Thank you. Harvey's work is amazing. I moved the 7X16 to the front and Harvey converted the
6X16 to 8X16.

That's my favorite finish. I'm saving up to refinish a set of 7's & 8's (16") that I have. Is that an early SC? What color is it? (L936 silver maybe?)

I have an '82 SC that's zinc/pewter (L956, kind of a dark silver) and I'm trying to visualize the classic RS finish with mine, or if I want a bit more white in it or something.

Anyway, those Fuchs look great.

Love the RSR look - Harvey's work is superb.

How did he go about making the 8's from the 7's?

[Canada Kev]

Looks good. Car looks earlier than an 87 - must be the bright trim that does it.

I love the finish on my wheels. They're also Harvey's RSR style.

[Flojo]

who inventet the RSR-polished-lip style?
Magnus Walker does these for his cars.
Was it him?

Looks perfect! I'm running gold centres at present but tempted to get a spare 7/8 set in rsr finish.

That, and the early aluminum engine grill, probably. It's really amazing how just a few small changes can change the look of these cars so dramatically.

Thank you. It was definitely time for a history lesson. Nothing against Magnus Walker...

It's like Christmas in February, getting stuff from Harvey. Looks great.

I like that rear valence that's only cut out where the center exhaust tips are...don't see that very often on stock impact bumper.

Chris, how long did it take to have your wheels done? Mine have been there since November and I just can't wait to see them finished. I've seen a gazillion pictures of Weidman's wheels on the Internet and I'm sure in every single case the pictures just don't do them justice. I cannot wait to get that first look as I take them out of the box, that moment of "I can't believe these are mine".

Car looks really good and the RSR pattern Fuchs are nicely set off by your other little nods to the long hoods. The Aluminum grille, the engine displacement badge & the bright trim, and door handles really set the car off. I think you really owe it to yourself to find some of the smaller euro bumperettes, just to keep with the quiet sense of attention to detail the car presents.
Cheers

Wiedmans +1.
Still fresh after 4 years. He can do anything.

My 87 done by Harvey...7s and 9s with RE-11s, 225s and 245s.
When I first got them:

After a year or so


Just mild dishwashing soap and a sponge, then dry

I had Harvey do mine - this photo shows them after about 10 years.... polished in my case...
