Nice touch on the wheels!!

I like the idea of using the color on the ground fx.

Thanks I haven’t had it very long it took me 4 days to do the wheels because I wanted them to look perfect in think that color will look sweet on the ground effects I’m getting ready to start building my spare 3800 to put in the SS in March I’m adding a turbo and front mount intercooler I plan on running 12psi I’ve got a whole list of mods I plan on doing this car belonged to my little brother before he passed away at 15 so I have a very strong attachment to her me and my wife are building it in his memory

Hello and Welcome to the forum!

Interesting color combination you have chosen. The copper actually comes across quite well to me. It really shows that you took your time, good man!
Copper accents on the ground effects accompanied by a substantially thinner black stripe could look sweet...

Your 7 kids are very lucky to have you on their team... Some fathers never show up and become a dad, they are hit and run artists. High five to you for being there! Awesome
