... and now for something completely different! A Caddy wheel that was missing ALL the material from the rim and only had a minuscule amount of plastic left where the spokes met the rim! I used an early 50's Chevy rim as a donor, cut the original ring off the spokes, welded on the donor rim and the proceeded to repair and paint it in a 2 tone color scheme as per the customers request. The colors were separated by a metal band and then the entire wheel was buried under several coats of clear, leaving a smooth finish.

This first shot is of the donor wheel laying on top of whats left of the Caddy wheel.
