I think the black wheels would look better if you did something to highlight the lips.

Lots of black in the wheelwells. I think you need some whitewall tires.

Seriously, it looks loud and mean. I'd body color the headlight trim rings.

I think you took me for a spin in it, once when you were in Berkeley at the Durant Hotel. Great acceleration.

Read the blurb Mose.....%^B

Euro race headers....the Suepertrapps were a cheap altrnative..as I needed twin cats to be smog legal......

The 225s up front have NEVER rubbed...the Kumho 225/45s have been a fav of mine on both this and my 356 outlaw....

And yes...16s...

I think black wheels look great. I'm going to powdercoat my Fuchs too.

Your car looks so much more purpose-ful than it did with the fuchs.

I think if you changed out the flag mirror to something a bit smaller and racier it would really add to the car. Maybe the '74 style mirror but in anodized black instead of the chrome version. ...problem is it's kind of a big job b/c you would have to weld up the old holes.

anyway, Like I said Car looks great!
