    Ok, I don't know how to post pictures but gas stove-bolt does and tried this thread below earlier but the ***le didn't get us very far. So, heres a link to that post.
    Was thinking about two tone green, maybe a mild shave with wide whites.

    Doing a color change in Photoshop is really difficult on a picture where the car is all different colors and has rust and stuff. It would be much easier to find a picture of a similar car with clean paint, and change the colors around on it. The yellow wheels can always be edited onto the car. Just a thought.

    Paint does not make a car,stance surely does...

    dunno about the yellow wheels with a green car. i think that'd look goofy. dark green with orange wheels... maybe...?

    I gotta agree on losing the yellow wheels, but to each their own

    Too true. With the right combination of wheels, tires and stance, just about any car can be made to look good. I just added wheels and skirts to TheFrenZ's picture.

    Chris,that pic made me smile !!! Well,laugh actually.Cool stuff and great photoshopping.What a cool car that is...the combination of stance,wheels and tires is really everything,just like you say.I remember this scene out of a Cheech & Chong movie where Cheech is "polishing" his primered,rusty and checkered '64 Impala and the car looked *****in' cause it had the right stance and tires,Astros with skinny whites if I remember correctly...

    Everybody, thanks so much. I have been sick all last week with stomach flu and just got back into the swing of things. I think the stance would really make a difference, the yellow wheels? maybe you guys are right. But, it was easy to do now and I just hated doing them red. I like those sombreros lots but I am in love with the hubcaps that are on the car now, neat little crest in the middle, same as on the hood below the ornament. Evilgenius you nailed a good color combo with the dark/light green and orange wheels, hmmm....
