Heres my brothers 66 T Bird.He has some House of Color mini Kamen Blue metal flake,he wants to use to shoot seaweed flames on it.But he doesn't know if that will look ok or not.He also wants to go with chrome reversed wheels with spiders and thin white walls.Can anyone here photoshop it? My brother and I would appreciate it alot! Thanks!!
Thanks! I still have the Jimmillac I"m looking at it right now..its all covered up in tarps,it ain't goin'nowhere.I WILL finish it! I keep tellin myslef that!
I've been telling him that a nice panel job would be the shit and obviously it is!! but he's stuck on damn flames..oh well not my car... Man that looks pretty bitchin!! Thanks
Jay as far as speed parts go..I'm not really doing it anymore.All the break ins put me out of business and in major major debt!!
Ok Marcus, This is where I ended up. Honestly, if I had a high-res photo, I could do a lot better, clean it up a lot more, but I hope I got a grasp of what you're looking for.
Well thats a drag you were the only parts pimp i knew that might be able to find stuff. whats lacking on the jimmy before it hits the road?
All I need to do is mount the Moon tank and elec fuel pump and get a longer fan spacer or make a shroud of some kind and thats it really... shes all wired, hooked up and ready to run! I need a new hood,make a grill,rims and tires,exh,interior,paint etc etc...All I need is about $7000
Colors are different, but you get the idea. A mix of panels and flames could be real cool. Long scallops look really good on those cars as well. PS- you see any of these hubcaps around let me know
62 Buford always nails it perfectly! If the guy still wants flames...how about reversing them in the panels? You know...white flames that come into the blue/purple panels (but are connected to the white body color). I wish I could just do it myself...Buford...help?
62 Buford you convinced my brother that a panel job is the only ticket!! He never listens to his big brother>>Anyways he went over to the painters today where the painter was masking off some seaweed flames and my brother said hold on here's the new plan...I will post pix when it is completed Thanks!! Now we need a plan for the grille!!! Thanks A million!!
That's the general idea, 62Buford! someday, you should come to S.A. and show me some of that fancy photo-chop stuff! You'll want to poke your eyes out after spending a day trying to teach me some computer stuff, though.
two words.....tube grill .... and do one in the back to mimick the front ...atleast thats what i see .....and yes the panel is the only way to go.....what colors ?????
I just got back from checking out the T Bird...Oh shit it looks sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!! my brother decided that Tahoe turqouise a 60's Mustang color was the color he wanted to use for the panels..after that that whole car will get a clear coat with the blue metal flake in it...Man i can't wait to show you guys!!
That looks like a cool project! I have only seen a few done as a custom and even less that actually look good - but you have the right idea. I thought I'd share a pic of my '65 I had. I want to do another, a '66 with the blind quarters but with a '65 front clip.
