steven304 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I just picked this 1970 521 up a couple weeks ago and have been having a blast driving around in it. It's kinda hacked together, but I'm slowly redoing it and making it more my style. When I got it. Repainted it and added different wheels. Lowered the front another 2-3". It had already been lowered when I got it. The paint that's on it is chalkboard paint so that's always a hit with my friends. Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I love the paint. The husband and I were at Home Depot last weekend looking at paints for our 510 and I joked with him about getting the chalkboard paint. That's awesome though, good way to clean up the shitty prior paint job, and still be able to have fun with it. Good looking little truck :thumbup: Quote Link to comment

Yes take care of them.I had mine rechromed and still cost alot just to do that.and i love the truck and the the way it looks in the third picture.what size wheel and tires you running on that thing. The stuff for the headlights is stained glass paint. I got it at a hobby store called Michaels for $10. Its pretty much spray paint for glass. I think the wheels are 15X8.5ish, but I forget. The tires are some old tires off a Prius 185/65R15. Quote Link to comment
