The damage looked worse than it was, but still took most of the weekend to fix. Three of the four just needed some sanding and touch up. The fourth was a little more intensive and needed some epoxy repair, so I ended up refinishing the whole wheel. Don't tell anyone, but it actually came out better than the first time. Got the wheels mounted on the car today and they look pretty good. I know the tire shop is getting off easy, but I'm still going to make a few calls tomorrow.



Your Ventura reminds me of the 455HO "What if" that Royal made up on a '71.5 Ventura Sprint with 15x7 Honeycombs and F60-16 Goodyear Polyglas's. It's looking really sharp!
