With the short deck it has, I think it's the perfect candidate for a fastback conversion. Or maybe something along the lines of a C2 Corvette.

Cool! I'm diggin' the mockup so far.
I had a look at photos of the Mach1 and 67 Camaro annuals' wheels, but the ribs seem kinda drowned under the chrome plating. I wonder if this is a project for 3D printing...hmmm. Comparing photos of the Appliance Apache vs the Hollywood Stingray, I think I actually like the Hollywoods better! The center ribbed section is narrower and the spokes terminate straight into the outer ribs, as opposed to the Apache, where the spokes don't quite touch the rim on the outer edges. In 1/25 I'm not sure the difference would be all that noticeable. Hollywood example below:

Big and littles would be cool too, but just the "stock" ones would be wonderful

As I think this one stretches MY line over the edge of TRaKable it will continue elswere. -BUT I'm most grateful for the Trophy-series event that got this started!
