Spectacular attention to detail ; top notch craftsmanship ; just plain gorgeous !

Now , I must admit that , I , too , am not a fan of the tyres / wheels in a general sense ; however , they look right at home here . Would I prefer a set of Astro Supremes or chromed steel wheels with Spyder Caps ? Yes . But , this is your car .

And , you've created one splendid piece :) :)

Thanks again for all the additional comments

and your Alcad is the nicest I've seen . :) What's your secret ?

No secret really.

Primed parts with Mr Surfacer 1200.

I like to use this primer under Alclad as it has much finer pigments than other brand primer's.

If applied correctly no wet sanding is required.

Applied Alclad Gloss Black Base then let it dry for approximately an hour then applied 2 very light coats of Alclad Chrome.

Let it dry for 24 hours then lightly buff parts with a very soft make up brush and tissue's.

That is reeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllly sweet!!!

If it were mine, it'd have Supremes and the factory tri-tone red vinyl interior, like this, or maybe even a custom black/gunmetal/silver tri-tone....
