Hi Listers, I will have my van painted either this year or in one year. I'm still deciding. I'm leading toward this year as the painter still has time for me. So, I've stirred up some paint questions for you folks. Remember, my questions are unlike others in that not only do I not have a lot of paint knowledge, but being blind I'm counting on the list for artistic suggestions and tasteful ideas as well as practical advice. Here is my first paint question. I'm keeping my original steel wheels and plan to use the chrome hub caps. The painter has offered to paint the wheels silver rather then the black they are now. So, What color looks best on a white Vanagon with chrome hubcaps and steel wheels? Currently wheels are rust free. Help me out here. I don't want to make a fashion blunder. It might help if you can tell me what the original bus wheel color is. I'm guessing metal silver but have to ask to be sure! More critical paint questions to follow. Eric Caron 85 GL Auto Westfalia
