You need to paint the wheels too though! - theyre letting it down!

Did you do any/much surface prep before painting? and what sort of paint did you use?

Spirals would look on them :wink:

V8MoneyPit:
I tried spirals on a Morris Minor van once. They didn't work too well. The wheel centres need to be flat to work properly...... sorry, was I taking the suggestion a little too seriously??  :oops:  :lol:

The Minor van was painted top half sky blue, bottom half grass green. And then a fortune was spent on Humbrol enamel tins to paint flowers, trees, birds, butterflies, etc... It had the rear view of an elephant on the back with a mouse sat next to it!

In the end, the paint that was left over was all dumped in one pot and it came out a salmon pink.... we used that on the wheels  :lol: So how about do that? Mix all that's left over for the wheels?  8)
