I'm planning on building this one white with blue interior and factory wheels.I will also weather the chassis, tires and engine to look like a nice clean driven car.

Does it come with the stock type wheels? or just the bling rims? Paul

It comes with the stock wheels but they are chrome.I didn't strip the chrome I just cleaned and painted them.

Here is the Chassis,I sprayed it flat black then brushed on different shades of rust Before the paint dried I dabbed it with the brush to give it texture. Here is the oily engine with rusty exhaust manifolds.I had to strip the chrome off the valve covers and the alternator and power steering pump to get a stock look. Here are the wheels,I didn't strip the chrome I cleaned them with dawn dish soap then painted them flat black then brush painted the gray and used stop light red on the centers. I painted the interior with Model Master Grabber Blue then detailed it with silver and flat and satin black. I made a turn signal arm and shifter,the shifter from the kit was an after market type.I also added floor matts using black felt. Here is a sneek peek at the car with the blue interior.
