    and you can get them here...

    Definitely love this project. Question, have you ever seen adjustable rear control arms for a 510?

    A few more wet sands with finer grits and this will polish to a mirror finish

    Then after I scrubbed and sprayed the shit off, I wet sanded one of the wheels for about a half hour with 400 grit to get some of the big blemishes and oxidized areas. Already it's looking better than the other wheels

    So we finally had a day with above freezing temps so I did a little work on the longchamps. I gooped some cheap stripper on to get the paint off of the spokes and back of face. I'll probably have to apply it one or two more times to get it all.

    Its hard to get a good focus on the camera... but its quite un-noticable that any material was removed. I'm really proud of the results.
