51 Chevy Coupe -leave it alone or stripe it or????

stripe that car.

really neat little rod. makes me wanna raise up the rear end of mine... well, maybe not.

dont scallop it.

a little traditional action on the nose, deck, and headlights.

if you're anywhere near LA i'd LOVE to stripe that car.

 

lay some lines on that thing

 

Scallops... And make them shiny black. Think it would look cool.

 

Super looking car, ether way you decide to go!!!
But I would love to have some simple striping done on my 51 coupe!!

 

Scallops man.....scallops.

 

Stripe it heavy

 

stripe it up homie

 

Great looking car but some stripes would add character to it and make it stand out more. Scallops always look good on that style of car too.

 

stripe the bitch!!! nice car btw

 

Options:
a)stripes
b) scallops
c) give car to Old-Soul

I suggest 'c'! Oh wait, that's me!

 

Nice long clean stripes on the fenders just past the headlights and a nice clean design on the trunk...bring it over and Ill get that done for you!

 

Old-soul:

Gentlemen, thanks for your replies! Now, how about old school cream-yellow-orange-red flames w/blue pinstriping?

Speaking of "old soul", I was backing out of a parking place and this elderly (I'm 58 so he really was elderly - 80ish) drives up behind me in a newer Mercedes and stands on his horn. I nearly crapped my shorts and when I turn around he has his thump up with this HUGE smile and says, "WOW, you like driving that thing?" "You bet." was my answer.

Pinstripe for now and drive it for a while like suggested earlier....then you'll know what you are to do with it for sure !...Dig the 261 /5 speed lots....sorry 'bout the diamond plate.....nice little coupe!

 

Gloss clear coat?

 

SNRGRAH...1 of the hardest things in rods or customs, is to know when WHEN! is enough. and my friend your the desider. you only have to please yourself. don't copout now, just grow a set and make the decision. GOOD LUCK my friend...POP.

 

I'd basically leave it alone.

Skip the scallops altogether.
Stripe it only if you must, but don't get carried away.

Your buddy looks like he did a great job on the firewall, but since I live in one of the prime breeding grounds of species reddus neckus, I have a serious aversion to anything diamond plate or camo. Just a personal thing.

Nice car, congratulations!

 

Subtle strips then leave it alone. Less is more...... more or less.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!

I understand. Too funny!!!!!!!

 

My two cents: I think the style of scallops that "BadLuck" used (in white) would look great on your car; would tie in with the interior and white under the hood. Barely there, but causes you to go back and take a second look.

 

I would just lay some nice lines on the hood and trunk.Than cruise it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

my favorit type of car it´s winner al the time.

Whant ONE

 

would look real nice with some simple striping
