Truck Rallye resto

I blasted and primed one of my rallye's today and then polished the trim rings,.. and then drilled 2 more holes in the center cap, so it looks like there are 5 bolts holding it on instead of 3. Then I changed out the emblem with one off a 89 regal.
Whatcha think? These will be going back on my ride before the Mid Atlantic run. Along with 4 New Mastercraft RWL tires.





Inside shot to cut the glare

I know you have already heard this but damn you do beautiful work Jarrod!That center caps not
going anywhere.By the way my refurbished SS center caps came today and they look brand new.
$60 bucks for 4 was a great price on ebay compared to the other sellers "buy it now" price.

That's why you get the big bucks Jarrod! Nice Job.

look good. Maybe inside the lip or on the outside a shot of the darker body color?
just thinkin'''

Looks nice my friend. Where do I get a set of those center logo's. I have as set of those wheels, rings and centers for my winter tires. Hope to put them together before December.

I thought about using colors off of car but I want to use these rims on truck when not in use here so they will be silver as of right now.

Tim, they are not simple buy and stick emblems but here are some a link of what I bought on ebay. I know you can do the work needed to achieve this look.

I forgot I had one brand new tire for a spare so I will be going with these Maxxis tire. Now I just have to buy 3.

Stripped the paint off the center caps and found some stainless lug nut covers but not sure if I like them to much bling. I might just put some black lug nuts on it.



With lug nuts on.

I like it! The extra holes you drilled aren't lined up though. (Sorry! I notice weird things...)


Still though, I think the chrome lugs look really good on the stripped center cap. I'd rock them just like that. Black lugs wouldn't look right, IMO.

Well Sting I bolted the caps together and drilled right through the factory holes to get my new holes. I think your seeing a glare or something because there dead on.

Cannot wait to see them when you come down......

If anyone is looking for center caps Nos there are some on eBay right now.

nice work. i have a full set of those in 15x8 with new firehawk indy 500's ready to go on and a full set in 15x6 off a van for my snows. and for some reason every time i find one of those center caps at the junkyard i compulsively buy them, so i have a bunch of them to do different things with to change the look quickly if i get bored.

Get them put on your wagon and post up some pix's.

Had those wheels on "Brownie", my '78 Silverado "Big 10". Loved them....remember sanding and re-painting them in my driveway. Did stock silver on mine as well. Sharp!

Very nice work!

Ah you're right. I'm blind, it was center cap glare. Still, really really nice paint work, and I'd still stick with chrome lugs

Please Jarrod, for the children's sake, keep your nutses covered.

Sting once I get them monted I am going to run black on one side and chrome on the other and see what grows on me.

LMFAO Nice one Bewb.
