Thanks, that's my trusty Aussie ute. 1971 Ford Falcon, with 351 Cleveland power. The wheels are an old Australian made three peice, Simmons v5's.

So gorgeous! Those wheels make the car and the ride height is perfect! I have heard of Simmons before, a lot of the Mazda rotary guys like to run them. Cool car man!

Thanks again. I spent a lot of time getting the fitment just right with those wheels. As much dish as possible, and still able to tow and haul a load.

progress. Looking menacing in black.

I like the way this one turned out!

This bike has a lot of panache. I really like the lines, almost like a lightening bolt. Good job on this bike.

Thanks guys,
Thinking about some gold pin stripe to finish off.

Three days remaining! Finished threads are up!

Remember...first pic in the finished thread is used in the voting booth. I think the third and second pics you currently have on your finished thread show the bike better than the first.

Your call...good luck!

A post win make over for Caps!ze. Time for another colour change.

Stripped back down. Again.

Silver and charcoal splatter over the black base.

Candy purple.

Back together. My banana seat needs a repair to the mounting points, so I added a plush, sprung Brooks for now.

The updated bell location is epic. Splatter is the new black

 

[GTHOtrod]

I wasn't going to splatter this one. But it is a cool look, I think it works well under the candy
