Boy, you and Dave are just getting better and better at the jalopies. Really nice job. :banana-dance:

Whole car looks like a jalopy that has been run a long time and left sittin' outside

What are the inserts in the wheels from? They look great with those wheels.

Thanks guys. The best part is that Dave and Bob T. helped finish it. Bob hand painted the numbers and they came out great.

BTW, the color is Krylon "Ballet Slipper"

It worked good too.
