I gotta agree with Dave here, it's not too bad. I also would have left off the Datsun badges, plus used LX tail lights, not painted the headlights (I do like the use of the T-Bird headlights though!), reworked the lower portion of the front bumper so it looked better, got rid of the scoop and side vents, reworked and/or completely eliminated the stripes, and painted the grills flat black.

For reference, here's Model Master's Big Bad Blue Lacquer on a lexan body I painted a while back, reason I used it was that it looked pretty close to Petty Blue.

Artillery Wheels ?
Joe Handley replied to Greg Myers's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Most of the time I've seen those things stuck on some poor car, it was still rolling on it's factory 14" Steelies and cheesy plastic hubcaps...............wonder if I would catch nonsense for ones that read 28" or 29" to my Jeep.........it's tires are around that tall -
I think that vision blocker more of a "style" thing, otherwise I have not idea why on it either I am wondering on the blue lights too though.

Artillery Wheels ?
Joe Handley replied to Greg Myers's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I guess it depends on the car and how it's built on the artillery wheels, personally I think they're kinda neat looking and might not look bad on a Pre-WW2 car or truck. Not sure how the milk truck rims look though, never seen those. I do like those too, they kinda have an "aero" look to them even though they're a vintage part and would look right on a more speed oriented hot rod. Those lights would look great on something like a road going Track-T or Lakes Roadster with some kinda of moon disk type wheels. Even if you're going to do a modern street rod like that, use the newer projector style lights in those with large aluminum disk type wheels and a nicely smoothed body. -
brought home one of the "Monogram" '58 T-Bird kits, looks nice too!
