Ole Green,

Im actually in Edmond. But, when I was in school at OU, all of my friends would hang out at my buddy Luke's house. It was the hangout, where we would have all the parties, and then any given day, we woudl always be wreching on our Mustangs. Luke's Garage was born. We called it LGRacing. So, we built a website, and the rest was history. That was about 10 years ago, and we have all grown up, and moved on with life. Now that I'm in the process of rebuilding this truck, I gave it a quick faux "shop truck" paint job. And of course, Lukes Garage was the name I used. Its very temporary, and will only be on there, until I end up sanding through it.

I hope to have the truck finished before the Hot Rod Nationals come back to OKC, in April.

I have been looking at using these wheels. How did you got the silver ring? Is it just sanded down to the metal or what? If so what did you use to get it to the raw metal. Did you clear over it? And does the silver go into the "crease" of the wheel? A close up pic would be great help if you could get one. Thanks a lot, its a killer looking truck.
