Agree white wheels definitely look good on a blue scooby - even on the classics too!

Looks good but be prepared to clean them regularly make sure you put on several layers of sealant or wax which should help keep them looking clean.SJ.

Engine is out of the car again and while it's out I am going to be painting the engine bay along with the whole car.

Penned up to repair tiny dents


Engine out


And on a stand


Stripped and ready to clean
