Play time

I decided to paint the wheels back to their original color. I love black wheels but I actually think this looks better.



I hated the switch that came with the driving lights. It was big and really bright. So I went with tihs one.


I really wanted to mount them inside the lower grill but I was more ok with drilling holes in the bumper rather than cutting up a perfectly good grill that I can't find anymore if a situation arose.


They turned out ok I suppose. Here you can also see Richard Cabessa in the drivers seat.


This is what it looked like with the black wheels.

Chris,

agree with the silver looking better on the wheels on your van.

I did the same thing on my maroon-ish Jeep Wrangler, painting original wheels black. Looks better on some body colors than others.

"Richard Cabessa" - classic. Reminds me of "Juan Pelota"... gotta respect that LA calls himself that.

So did RC eat the steering wheel then poop it out on your living room carpet?

Ha....I actually outsmarted the little rascal yesterday. I put a liberal amount of peanut butter inside his Kong toy and he stayed fairly occupied while I worked.
