Title: Re: my ute again Post by: OldGMHolden on March 19, 2012, 10:14:51 AM G'day Wayno,
Can you put up a photo of your wheels for me please? Where did you get your centre caps, and what sort of wheel nuts did you use? I have some widies I want to use but they have no provision for hubcaps. I did think about Torana GTR trim rings, centres and nuts but am looking at all options. ??? Cheers, Gaz Title: Re: my ute again Post by: mcl1959 on March 19, 2012, 09:04:54 PM Thanks for that Wayno - is that a blue pinstripe around the bonnet?
Ken Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 25, 2012, 07:49:41 PM good spotting ken,
thats blue masking tape ,i am thinking about scalloping the bonnet,ran outta masking tape though haha gaz, the wheels are ht/g's, got the rears widened to 7 inch, the trim rings are from johns rod and custom, and the centre caps i stole off my mates custom xp grille, chopped down to suit.....(kept tellin him how much better the stock grill was till he changed and gave me the bullets.HAHA) Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 25, 2012, 07:52:26 PM the wheel nuts are standard.
been tryin to find some chrome ones to na avail Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 25, 2012, 07:57:49 PM thinking of laced candy red roof,dont think i'll go with the scallops.changes every week in my head( ARGH)
Title: Re: my ute again Post by: OldGMHolden on March 26, 2012, 08:40:33 AM Thanks, Waynos.
I'll just keep lookin, lookin. ::) Cheers, Gaz. Title: Re: my ute again Post by: jack_fc on March 26, 2012, 08:52:31 AM Waynos, I got a set of chrome bullet wheel nuts from armadale auto parts; think they were about 50 or 60 bucks a set with 4 lockers and 2 sockets to siut the plain and lock nuts. can put a pic up if you want... cheers, jack Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 26, 2012, 04:13:47 PM jack,are the bullets long?
i have a set of bullets but are too long and look silly on the skinny fronts. im after a bullet or domey sorta nuts that are relatively short. have been everywhere in sydney lookin lookin, everything i find i like is bloody metric its hard to get anything i like in 7/16 have 3 sets of different sort of nuts ended up putting original nuts back on might just get these chromed about 4 bucks each is what i was quoted i think its too much even thought of gettin some turned up outta stainless which ever way i go its gonna be expensive should just put the moon caps back on haha they were only 20 bucks at a swap meet Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 26, 2012, 07:42:10 PM why did i get moved??????????????????
i do understand, but it is still very much a project under construction . thats why i put it there. it is not regoed and a whole lot of mods are taking place............... Title: Re: my ute again Post by: jack_fc on March 26, 2012, 08:21:04 PM jack,are the bullets long? not really; I'll measure them and get a pic for you tomorrow... My front rims are only 5 x 14; they look OK on these narrow rims. I used them to replace chromed closed 'flat-top' nuts; they only stick out about 1/2" more than the flat-top ones; maybe less, and they're more domed than pointy. (but I usually run baby moons over them anyway...) Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 26, 2012, 08:51:26 PM jack,
these sound like the ones i been lookin for........ a pic would be great mate thanks heaps Title: Re: my ute again Post by: jack_fc on March 27, 2012, 10:16:07 AM Waynos, these chrome nuts may stick out more than you'd like... When fitted, they are 41mm proud of the nut seat. From Armadale Auto Parts; go to their site, then 'Wheels Hubcaps and Accessories' then 'Hubcaps and Wheel Trims'... now $90 a set with 'installation kit' :o They are more of a 'domed bullet' - no sharp point. Anyhow, some pics - (http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x198/jack_fc/IMG_1070.jpg) (http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x198/jack_fc/IMG_1072.jpg) (http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x198/jack_fc/IMG_1071.jpg) cheers, jack Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 27, 2012, 05:48:18 PM jack thanks mate
they are the closest thing to what i've been lookin for thanks again regards wayne Title: Re: my ute again Post by: jack_fc on March 27, 2012, 08:15:33 PM no worries, mate; if I helped out like this a hundred times over, I'd still be in debt to this forum and its members... :) Title: Re: my ute again Post by: waynos on March 27, 2012, 11:23:11 PM know what you mean ,i feel the same.my car would probably be on stands still if it wasn't for this forum 8)
