Eddie, those 1:1's? Are they missing something, like lug nuts? Are they four lug? Would they fit my Corolla? I figure with the silver lip, that deep looking dish and some black spokes, they would look at home under there.

No, the auster won't get paint until the chassis is complete. I will have to trial fit the body on the chassis many times yet so it's to risky painting it yet as it might get damaged. Works on hold for a week with that while i build a model of a GC110 Skyline to give my dad for christmas (he owns a 1:1 GC110). I'll get some time to do more on it before the new year though.
Not sure what you mean about the 1:1' rims. That picture came off of a Japanese auction site. I would think your Corolla will have a 114.3mm (4.5 inch) PCD...in which case there are loads of rims that will fit it. All older Toyota, Nissan, Datsun, Mitsubishi, and many other 4 lug Japanese cars have that pattern with the exception of Honda and most Mazda. There are even a few US cars with that four lug fitment. I think some 80's Mustangs have it. There is a
website with a huge list of rims to fit Datsun 510's (most of which would also work on your car) Some are aftermarket, some OEM. Take a look it might be useful. You occasionally see Panasports on ebay to fit Datsun 510's or Z's...a coat of dark grey mettalic paint and you'll have that RS Watanabe look on your Corolla!
