Does it come in sheet form? Thought of buying in sheets and cut them into some chassis.

Very clean. Looks like it was raced in a pillow factory. :wink: I'll PM pics, and yet again FERRETTI's thread gets hijacked...

New pics now with JPS alloys ( at flipping last :roll: ), I picked this style I thought it was a little retro (however I don't think they will be stopping on this), just the dyeing left to do now and fit a body :shock: .

Sorry, I'm not all about those wheels... :roll: Good you got 'em, but ehhh... :? Are they really appropriate for that era chassis? Daryl...?

Sorry FERRETTI, no offense intended but they are not blowing my skirt up... at least not on that build.

Sorry to say anything... :oops: :oops: :oops: They do appear to be very nice wheels....

You all can slag me when I put up the pics of Technicolour Vomit in a few days... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Thank you for all the comments, it's nice to get feedback from all perspectives, it would be a boring place if everyone liked the same thiing Temple :lol: :wink:

I think the wheels are starting to grow on me, they might just be keepers :D

It's all good, I'd put a stealth in an A&L to race, for sure. I'm glad FERRETTI finally got the darn wheels, and figured some light ribbing would make him "feel better"... 8)

Don't want to ruffle any more feathers... :lol: :lol:
