Operation Dirty Penny - '75 Merc 240D

Countersinking it would be easy, I just don't know if I'd rather have raised screws. Maybe some nice looking copper plated ones.

What about the best of both worlds? Get some countersink washers for the screws, then polish/brush the screw and copper plate the washers?

I think he's dead

I didn't die yet. Mostly just been hoarding up parts to finish without actually working on it. Finishing up this damn wiring now and topping off all the fluids so I can drive it. Then just need to drop in the rest of the air setup and interior. Copper playing will be done in pieces as I go.

Guys, I've decided I want to build the HRE's I have. I thought they were Hayashi Racing Techno R's after measuring them a while back but turns out they are in fact US made HRE's. That being said I need some 16" or 18" lips/barrels and I can't seem to find them anywhere. Anyone have suggestions on who can do a custom set?

There's a place in Germany called Felgen Fuchs. They make their own lips for a lot of brands, including BBS which I got from them. I'm sure they could get you some, or even make some! If they could make some that would be dope because it could be et f*ckin perfect.

ewheelworks on instagram or spintec. I've seen some pretty cool custom 3 piece wheel sets from them.
