Took some pics today for another thread regarding the stripes on my car... Couldn't help it... 4 shots became 40 when some chick on a bicycle gave me a compliment... that always makes my day... snap happy on a sunny day... here are a "few" scaled pics of my baby's new look... new white letter shoes and better colour contrast... from 6 months ago I think it has stopped looking like 'grandpa's car'... there was no contrast between the grey & chrome, and the black and the red. Painted the wheels red, blacked the front end and rear end (more contrast with the chrome trim and the grey stripe), and of course those lovely sport mirrors to replace the mis-matched chrome blobs that used to hang off the doors. Last change will be cutting holes for a 2 barrel... gotta find me a spare hood and a Shelby scoop before I do that. Whisky

Thanks guys... and ANOTHER ideas is... I think this is the link for the stripes thread... I took a "high" shot to show the trunk... http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=2880&page=3 Another idea I had - like the Buick GSX... is to use a bold black or white stripe - depending on the colour of the car... and make the thin outline a different colour again... like red or blue - 2x the work and 2x the price, but the decal place does custom colours as well... Too many ideas... this is why we all need lots of cars... Whisky
