71 MONTE 4 YA Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Finally pulled them out of the garage and redid them. Came out alright. Anybody need some rally wheel paint? I bought two cans and ended up needing only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOHNA01374 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Mine are looking a bit worn and I'd like to redo them pretty soon. I'm considering going with a little darker gray than stock as I've always liked that look. It would also be very easy to correct if I decided I didn't like the look. Your wheels look great. Is the extra can you have the correct argent color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I just painted up a set of 8 inch rallys for my 72 also. Getting new 245/60/15 BFG tires mounted this weekend... It's like Christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Peters Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Rodney, The wheels look great. You may want to put one more coat on them with the second can. Either that or keep it to use for touching them up as needed. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Wow I didn't know that I thought someone had just put them on there. I had never seen those on a Monte before. Which year were they optioned?

Canuck Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I beleive those hub caps were an option in 71. They were also available in 72 with the Custom package. It's pretty rare to see them on a Monte these days. They are similar to the ones available on the Corvette aronud that time also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
