Oh yea, well I use detergent oil too so what do you think of that;) BTW anyone wanting to donate some money toward the purchase of those shinny ring wheel thingies it would be greatly appreciated.

You should carry a set of Polaroid sunglasses for the viewing pleasure of the puristas! I betcha they would convert the car to something pretty close to original shades...

Best advice I ever heard on color: Have a woman pick it.
Without such input, everything I have that doesn't move would be white, everything that moves would be black. Betcha Henry ran in the same groove.

Women have a good eye for color, Bruce! After painting my "modern" truck black, I ran 2 thin stripes the length of the side. Pat suggested 2 colors of LILAC, it looked REALLY great!
On Vermin, the stripes are MUCH too wide! I'll have my striper run a body color in the center of it to make it 2 skinny stripes. Easier than removing it & going with one skinny stripe. I'll also run a skinny, body color stripe on my straw wheels to help "tie" in the wheels to the body color. Bill W.
 
Dusty, contact the Sprite soda company. That car would look perfect for a commercial for them. It looks like their perfect blend of citrus flavors.
 
way too much bling for me, but I enjoy the fact that you dare to be different.
sending the trophies to the scouts was a GREAT idea.....

Dusty, to keep her looking as original as possible you should detail those white wall Firestone's moniker with the original paint like so..... :D
