There are as many different ways to customize car as there are people. Everybody has an idea what they like and some people's ideas run pretty close together. Personally I wouldnt use 18" rims but they look good on those two cars. I dont ordinarily like flames on cars but sometimes they look good sometimes they look overdone IMO. Like Lowriders, I can appreciate the work but I dont care for lowriders. I think they are an abomination and they ruin perfectly good cars like 63 Impalas with 13" gold wire rims, funky paints jobs and 50 yards of crushed red velvet. but it makes them happy and they like it and thats all that really counts.
Its like Nirvana said he would like to see more chrome under the hood. I'm the exact opposite, I like the brushed, polished alumimum look and less chrome. I think some guys overdo the chrome bit not just under the hood but all over the car. If you look at the engine shot on the Mustang, SW decided not to have the bolts for the fenders painted and they stand out, personally for me I would have painted them
You have to build the car for yourself if it is a driver.. if it is a show car you need to build it for the judges.
exactly right. Rodney has said he will never personally build another car for himself to show because you have to built it for the judges and find out what appeals to the majority of the masses that go to the car shows to win. its too much work and aggravation. He'll still do body work and paint for them, give suggestions and help but not build them for himself.
Ok, so somebody at Picture Hanger felt my pain and gave me some more space so I'm puttin up a couple more pics
