Old Style Panel

I was thinking today, what if you took a Panel, replaced the mirrors with some old style "west coast" mirrors, smoothie wheels with mud grips on the back, mud flaps, a visor and old style "clearance lamps" on the roof. Would that look "cool"?

I agree, old style + fake "lakes pipes look good"..

There is a pair in the classifieds here right now, supposed to be hi-grade stainless.
