I'd either paint the wheels to match the lower section of the truck or paint the truck something a little different.
Thats just my opinion and please do not be offended by it. My truck is in 100 pieces and I hope its at least 1/2 as nice as that picture.

No offense take at all. The spark behind this paint job was that I saw it on old Bel-Air one day and I thought it looked classy and kind of old school which is what I like. I figured I would throw it in photoshop and see what came out. Not everyone's cup of tea which is ok as long as it doesn't leave them gagging lol

Like what was on the board a couple months back. The Impala like trim. Scuff up the white top and reclear it with some white pearl or mabey silver pearl. Chrome smoothies. Big fat white walls. Drop it about 4" to 5". Then Shlongbed the chet out of it.
Just an idea....

Thanks for that input and that would totally rock I think! Unfortunately this paint job is going to get done on the Rustoleum cheap for one I cant afford more, two I have always wanted to do that so here is my chance! and last, the body has some issues which I will try to repair myself as I am learning however I make no illusions that it will never be worth spending thousands of dollars of paint ont it

Since I dig old school would you mind expanding on that a little more? what color would you paint the rims? Thanks!
