S1Steve Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) Painted my wheels black.... If I still like that look, I'll powdercoat them this summer... Edited December 19, 2011 by S1Steve
locost7018 Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Love the top and doors. Where are they from? Car looks great. Keep the wheels black. Russ
S1Steve Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 Thanks Russ, Doors and top came with the S1's. Windows slide down inside the door, and the top can fold up into a t-top. Like the vettes and trans-am cars. It's a nice top, you still get wet when it rains, but I guess that's one of the joys of these cars. LOL Steve
Mondo Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Not normally a black wheel fan but I also think cars looks best with just two or three colors... black and orange go well. Looks good! I almost picked that color orange as I saw an Ultralite that color and loved it. Only problem was it was also in California and with less than a handful here I decided on black (and silver theme).
jimrankin Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 The Orange needs something to offset it and the black wheels and top fit it to a "T". And with the top off the wheels will be an even more striking counterpoint.
turboeric Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Thanks for the inspiration. The Westfield I'm building is orange and I was planning black wheels. Now that's certain.
JohnK Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Looks great. Every time I see a picture of your car it brings back such great memories.

Eric, If you look on Dick Brink's website, Texas Motorworks, the Birkin dealer . In the for sale section you will see a orange birkin with black wheels. Thats were my inspiration came from, and that I had this car ten years and am ready for a change. Have Fun with your Build,
westy turbo Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 They look great!!!! orange and flat black if u like its awesome.
pi7ot Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 The black will look good once it's dirty,to my taste. A Satin black as opposed to the gloss would look good as well. :cooldude: What Muffler is that? m
S1Steve Posted December 20, 2011 Author Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) m, I would say it's built by Superformance... came with it... I would have liked Satin or even flat, but I had 5 cans of gloss in the garage.. To lazy to go to homedepot...lol Edited December 20, 2011 by S1Steve
TxCoyote Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 Great looking car. I like the black but I chose a different path.
