I kind of like the retro mid-seventies highboy look the car has. However I'm considering lowering the nose slightly.

Opinions?

Yeah... its retro... I know.

 

I like it just the way it is. The gold looks good , I painted one that color a month or two ago with black Z28 stripes. It definately grew on me. It will stand out at shows in an ocean of reds, hugger oranges and blacks.

If it were mine, I would change the offset on the wheels to tuck them in more, put wider ones on the back and narrower ones on the front. Mabye a 16x7 front and 16x 9 back on those same style wheels. Then I'd lower it just enough to eliminate the fender gap. That's about all.

Nice car!

 

Thanks!

I didn't care for the color much until I saw it in person. The TTD's wouldn't be my first choice, but they do give it a "retro" look.

I interior is bordering on immaculate...

I'm going to take my time and plan this out right... my '68 RS was my daily driver so it had to be done in stages (and on a college student's budget). With this one, I'm leaning towards retro-rod cruiser.

I may even go back to ralleys... who knows.
