That is Canepa's way of hiding cheap Trigos on expensive original cars. He doesn't black the cars with Sunbursts.
There was a really beautiful street Kirkham with the blacked out Trigo's on Cobra Country not too long ago. A CC member named KurtMart was selling KMP213, I think. I inquired about the wheels. KurtMart said he liked Bruce Canepa's work (the blacked out Trigo treatment on his original Cobra restorations) and his resto's consistently get top dollar. And so it goes.
As I continue to wait for a set of mags someday......

...then he should sandblast them and get them all nice and pitted, THEN powedercoat.
But in fairness to Canepa, Sunbursts were ally, so no treatment necessary.
Rodknock,
Kurt's KMP was at the Petersen show in Jan. It was a nice car. Driven. You should see the road he had to drive to get to his house. First time I saw it was when I picked up his Sunbursts
