I seen someone on here use pizza pans as wheel covers there's the one hanging from the ceiling but there's another the pans cover the whole rim and look like the moon covers hopefully they will post always thought it was cool considering the cost of mooneyes disc I tried using two 10" pot lids like center caps but did not work tried tighten it to the axle and give up would have to mount to spokes somehow for it to work.
 
Check out the Enigma and Captain America builds from BO9.
 
Yeah Enigma is one I was talking about built by Fordsnake really talented he gives a how to on page 10 of his build
 
Ok here's one that people either love, or hate.
Firestone Super Cruiser I picked up recently. Decided the hood ornament had to be a part of this one.

This is my favorite thread.
Seat shock came from a pocket rocket.
The faux oil tank was a tin for tea bags.
Spark plug boot from a Ford Focus.
Air cleaner bling made from a soda bottle.
Front fender held on by a tweaked curtain rod bracket.
I'm sure there are more on there if I think about it.
