Broccoli's Datsun 1200 ute

[ryanfels]

i quite like the thought of painting the dish aswel

[Brock-Lee]

I have a pair of mk2's that will likely get the centre/dish resprayed but these I spent a few $$ getting them straightened and polished up etc so will be putting my moneys worth on display

[KKtrips]

gold works well with red - I'm thinking of that gold and red Alfa Romeo GTV thing. droooool

[Kelvin]

I vote gold rims,I think they always look tuff on red cars

[Vintage Grumble]

Cant really visualize anything but red or gold now? Considered a dark metallic grey/charcoal, rather than black?

[Brock-Lee]

yuh, have been thinking a chocolaty sort of brown, but cant find anything on the net to back this up bar this;

But that is a redish brown.

Yuck. Gold is fucking horrible.

I say either Yellow or Orange, leaning more towards Yellow though, to skip the colour chart.

You could always paint the centres but detail the face of the spokes? Even if just half of them. Maybe a light metallic charcoal/grey or perhaps try that modern "bronze" from TE37's?

[DB8-TypeR]

Yellow wheels = McDatsun

[Vintage Grumble]

Yellow wheels = McDatsun

^ Yes, fo sho.

[AndyGal]

Red isnt the best colour for rims to suit. I think gun metal grey, or watannabe dark green/bronze. And not gold. SAGET

[BobbyBreeze]

Coloured centres will make it look like a joke. Silver/gunmetal or black please. I prefer silver.

[Guest]

Paint them with honey

[Vintage Grumble]

Paint me with honey

Kinky.

[Bistro]

gunmetal

[Brock-Lee]

Have had driveshaft rebuilt, is the gay staked universals so sent it to some driveshaftshop and paid a fuckload for them to do it , am getting headlining re made as we speak and talked to local sign writer about getting gauges refaced as they are all sun fucked. All in all this is getting out of hand, so much money for such a gay little ute.

Have done final build on motor and just need to sort me out the bolt on stuff.

Interiors, I am going black seats dash and door cars, do you think it needs body colour on the steel sections of the interior? ie a pillars and tops/bottoms of doors?

Wasnt really worth a pictureless update so shit went in here.

[Toucan]

Totally huge no for body colour on interrior steel. I've never been a fan. Reckon it would look a whole lot cleaner with a neutral colour like black or grey

[Bistro]

i reckon body colour, the red should work. as long as everything else in the interior is black. but im trusting youll do that anyways

[Toucan]

Clearly we require some photoshops of various coloured interior steel

[Brock-Lee]

Sortve like that but a b110 and without all the faggotry that one contains

That shit is factory

[Sparkle]

SAME AS MY UTE BRO

Def red interior steel.
