    with sugar on top?

    I have a 59 Bel Air and will be ready to lay out scallops this weekend, but still can't find the "right" look. Django has been a tremendous help. His version is below, and I love it, but it's a bit too "busy" for me. I want a real clean look. I need to see the hood, trunk, and side so I can lay them out (I'm not too good at guessing). The side trim is staying.

    thanks!

    Do it the way you like, but I think those scallops look good.

    damnit chad! i had myself all settled to go with skinny whites and you had to go and do that! Good thing I can't afford WWW

    I'm digging the new designs, too! a argh! I think we agree on the trunk, but could you show me how you vision the hood? That's been a trouble spot for me.

    yeah, I'm a picky bastard, but after a year of work, i want the car to be RIGHT for MY tastes.

    I really dig the very first set a scallops, maybe if they were outlined with a metallic gold, it might break up the contrast a bit. Just my .02.

    I like the one on the bottom left. Simple clean. I think too many people get carried away with and destroy the lines of a car. And your car already has great lines.

    Just remove a little of Django's and you got it.
    And 122wagon's is even less still.
