MADmodelDOCTOR Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I vote for the rallys ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I'm a big Rally fan, go with them!!!! Nice stance too!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodBurNeR Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I guess it depends on the era you want to capture in the mild custom. If you want to go old school, steelies are best choice. If you want to go for an 80s (just example) look, then the rally wheels be just right. Then again, late 60s too but they were not a common love in them days.

58 Impala Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Musclecar look I'd use the rallyes, for the custom look definitely the chrome steelies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsdropshop1 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 love them both but i would go with the rally's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Awesome - can't wait to see what you come up with for this one. The second option need some whitewalls to really set them off. And red lines on the first option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juergen Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 hi guys !!! thank you for your nice and constructiv postings. it´s good for me to get our feedback and the meaning from your great builders. after working through the night;-) the paint shop is done. i painted with tamiya colors and 2 compound clear coat from automotive industrie. after drying i will sanded and polishing and than it got bmf. i found steelies and i think they would be looking good for a old school look? after drying i will show you a foto about the stance and the look with the steelies. greets jürgen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Looking great already - love the colour and wheel choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Oooh, I love those colors. Great job on the paint. This one is coming along, chap. Keep it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Hearse Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 That is really cool! I like the steelies too. I think they'll be perfect on it! Looking forward to your next update on both the Charger and the '55! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Handley Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 You have to run Moons or Baby Moons on a car like that, Rallye's just look wrong on a Tri-5 Chevy to begin with and would be even worse on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juergen Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 hi guys ! now i can show you the body with the steelies. what do you mean about the stance and the style? i think it´s ok or not? greets jürgen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juergen Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 hi guys !!! a lot of thanks to your so nice comments. this is a very great motivation for me. @classic plastic: the wheels (moons and rims) are from the amt 51 chevy fleetline. the decals of the white rims are from a revell impala lowrider. @george53: thank you for your very nice compliment to my staff, like so much makes me very embarrassed greets jürgen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
