    Rik you do great work, I will have to get in touch with you when I go to paint the Caddy! I like C but in a dark and light blue contrast.

    B is BEAUTIFUL!

    I also like the frosty green tones of version E, but would like to see the scallops swapped for the panels & fades... mmmm, fades...

    Seems to go against most thoughts, but I like D or F the best... either one would be fine... in fact, they ALL look cool.

    G changes the lines of the car in my eyes, almost makes it look like a ford. I guess I should put on my glasses. Very nice photochop jobs. IF I ever get a car close to painting I should hire you before I paint.

    Never cared for the 61-63 Impalas, but after seeing your photos, I want one now. B, C and F are my favorites.
