    I'll get some better pictures tomorrow, when I can get the car outside. I plan to pinstripe the flames with white, so it all ties in with the interior.

    I like it. The flames have a good balance on that big body. Anxious to see it after you stripe it.

    White to go with the interior, lime would be cool too though, I might have to try it out.

    White stripes will make those flames JUMP off the car! I'm a big fan of satin paint with gloss flames,scallops,or accents.

    I'm a big fan of flames period, I wish the damn sun would come out, these things are just about solid flake, I know they are going to scream in the sun. The white just looks so good on dads53's car, plus it ties everything together with my interior. Just about every car I've ever done has had flames on it, but I was actually thinking of scallops until I saw the car below........

    My interior, hence the white stripes

    Wow, the old A is looking good.

    I found quite a bit of rot in the buick, but it's solid metal now, and, man it runs like a top still. Next up is new springs from Jamco, and a disc conversion from scarebird. I know the disc's aren't exactly "traditional" But the whole reason for the trade in the first place was a safer car for my WHOLE family, we couldn't all ride in the coupe.


    Good to see GOOD things done with my old car, cause sometimes, you never want to see a car you sold again.
