These Forgeline wheels are the ones I had in mind for my Camaro project.

I'm StRacerDuke over on pro-touring (One of the original's back before Larry upgraded to the current V-Board style). I've meet a handful of the PT guys, from Nor-Cal but moved to Boston, built a few cars, etc. I've read a few of your posts on PT and also remember your PHR article Steve did a few months back. Nice spread.

Amazing works of art...

I love Stevens copper Camaro. Bummer what happened to it after it had only been completed a short while.

They can be rebuilt though

The one in post #2 is nice and yet stupid at the same time.

Nice because it looks like a beast
Stupid because it has Nissan GT-R badges basically, S2000 start button, and cheap**** Autometer guages.

Remember, these cars are 40+ years old. Not every single item on the car needs to be a one-off hand built piece. You use what works on the car and I think the badge and buttom work, the gauges are simply beautiful. If you can pick appart any of the Ring Brothers cars, I would really love to see what you've built. It must be unreal.

As I'm sure their work isn't cheap, it seems cheap for a vehicle with that much customization done to it to be using a start button from a Honda that you can score in the junkyard for +/- $10, an R badge from Discount/Advance auto for $15, and then some cheap-looking Autometer guages, if anything make your own or just use the original stuff and just modify/modernize it.

Thought it was semi-sacreligious to put Japanese things on an American car...especially a nice classic Mustang like that one.
