Title: Steel Wheels
Post by: Si on 09 December 2005, 16:29
Ok i went a bit crazy with the spray gun today.. just finished spraying a rolls royce in Black and had paint left over, so in came my car to garage, the bonnet got few unwanted stone chips and scratches removed. Thats when i went a bit over the top!
My Standard 14" steelies got the black paint aswell, but only in the inner part as i left outer rim silver.
Not sure what i think of it tbh, i would put up photos but im a pc idiot and dont know how!  :nerd:

you put up a pic the same way as you put your sig pic up, but black steels, silver lip always looks good in my opinion.... you work in a body shop then i guess?!

Nah, my old man owns his own company restoring Rolls Royces and also builds performance classic and bizzare cars.
I just help him a lot and have learnt loads off him! Which is handy!  :smiley:

Bloody hell!!!

Your Dad rebuilds RR's how cool is that!!! I'd be watching he's every move, and then i'd be rebuilding Classis cars including Mk2's  :grin:

Its always been my dream to own a Classic car business, buying rebuilding err and maybe selling .... Just need those Lottery no's and then its Classic Car Heaven  :laugh:

Oh well we all have dreams  :embarassed:
