RATCAMINO 11-23-2003, 11:18 AM i was watching that show on spike tv called "riding with funkmaster flex" and they were showcasing some of jesse james' cars. when they showed some old hot rod i could have sworn there was a fifth gen el camino parked next to it. of course they didnt feature it on the show. i hope its one of his cars and not another project for monster garage or something! :cry: Poltergeist 11-23-2003, 11:26 AM Yep its his. I think it's a 79 with a blower setup. http://www.jessejameswheels.com/vehicles.htm EDIT - just realized that's the wheels he sells and not some of the cars he owns. acauth1 11-23-2003, 11:49 AM Yikes! From the looks of those pics, he's the king of ugly wheels... theelcaminofactory 11-23-2003, 12:32 PM I agree, I don't care for the big wheel craze. I wanna see my tires that I paid good money for so I can at least be sure that they're still on the rims. If I wanted big wheels I would have bought a covered wagon from a settler...or stole one of those trikes from a tyke made by Mattel. 16" is BIG enough! :lol: Tommy 11-23-2003, 02:53 PM How right you are! :) Elky85 11-23-2003, 10:09 PM they're probably some of his custom wheels he designs. If i remember right it takes him like 54 hours to make 1 rear wheel for a custom motorcycle. its made from a solid chunk of aluminum instead of a wheel blank. so i could imagine how long a set of 20's would take 87SS 11-24-2003, 08:15 AM Yikes! From the looks of those pics, he's the king of ugly wheels...Those wheels are just wrong! :mad: acauth1 11-24-2003, 08:17 AM James really needs to stick with motorcycles....seems to be the only area where he's really talented. camino81 11-24-2003, 12:49 PM did anybody notice the prices? $2200 for just one 26 inch rim. 2-Elkys 11-24-2003, 01:55 PM did anybody notice the prices? $2200 for just one 26 inch rim. Well his name is JESSE JAMES! camino81 11-25-2003, 04:28 AM yeah you notice the tattoo on his hand, pay here sucker. 2-Elkys 11-25-2003, 06:46 AM In the old days JESSE JAMES robbed trains... Now he robs RICERS! ElkyPete 11-25-2003, 08:35 AM There is someone with a brown 5th gen that drives around in my neck of the woods that has 20" Gold tone Spokes on his. It looks stupid! The truck is in good shape and has a pretty good paint job on it but those wheels are just bad. Some wheels are just meant to be ugly. big bear 12-05-2003, 07:30 PM i was kinda mad when they bought that elky on monster garage i would have trade them cause mine needs alot of work so it would have been a great car for the show big bear 1982 SS 12-06-2003, 02:05 PM I haven't seen an episode, but from what I hear they get perfectly useful cars and turn them into junk. Who in the right mind would do that to something other than a Pinto or Mustang II! :mad: Choo Choo Noob 12-22-2003, 01:11 AM Hey, Times are changing. Either your down with the bling or not, but personaly i think he could have done alot worse wheel choice on the el-camino. I like it, and atleast the rims are more shiny than rubber, for all ya chrome freaks. | ||
