Then i had the bright idea of painting the rims for that hotrod look !!
everyone said it wouldnt work on top of the chrome but they were baddly pitted so i thought "what the h***" and gave it a go !!!
i took all the spokes out to paint
sanded down the chrome
primmered and resprayed red
re spokeing and trueing the repainted wheels was a nightmere :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Image

all reassembled and chrome pollished and a retrim on the seat and she is all done !!

Looks great, I'm currently working on the same kind of bike. Mine will be blackish though kinda experimenting with colors.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.
