    First let me introduce myself, im Adam from NJ and i have a 69 Deville. Even tho 69 is a little late for the scallops era i still like them and really want to put some on the car. Problem is i cant seem to think of a good pattern that works with the body lines, and i know there are some people out there that can just look at the car and come up with something perfect. Could someone help with maybe drawing or photoshoping some on the car?

    Hate to break it to ya, pal, but this is really a forum for traditional hot rods and customs. Chances are, you won't find much help on this one.

    Get out the 1/4 tape and start following the Body lines. Stand back 20 feet take a look and add some more tape. You'll get the shape you want!!
    Just keep trying until you get the look you want. On that car I wouldn't get the scallops to big. Work with the flowing lines you've got.
