I gotta disagree with ya Tyrel, I dont think red would have looked right at all with that cars color. That pic is the cats pajamas, tho!

The red wheels was a jab at seeing them on everything.  I don't really think red wheels would look good with it.  I was trying to decide on black or ford blue, well walmart made the decision for me because they didn't have the ford blue so I just did black.

That is the original color of the car, the paint was all dirty and chalky, I drove it down to Jamestown and spent 3 hours scrubbing it so it looks less chalky than it does in this photo now.  

Photo was my first attempt at night photography.  I've wanted to try it for a long time after seeing Lost America's photos.

You can't go wrong with black wheels...All of my drivers have had them at one time or another.  They match just about anything.  Great job with the night photography.

Nice long exposure, turned out great. I have to agree with Ryan, black wheels look good on almost anything.

Love that picture. You'll have some work coming from that.
