    photo 21.jpg I'm almost ready to paint my 55 Olds Holiday 88. I plan on going with either black/green w/ matching scallops, green/cream or green/silver w/ matching scallops. Problem is, I can't find any decent pics of cars with either of those color combos to see how the colors look together. I'm still undecided on satin or gloss, so either one is good. I did a lot of backyard body work that I think might look ok w/ gloss, but i'm not 100% sure. I'll see better how it looks when i wet sand it. Here's the car currently (roof is matching green). I'm going to go w/ a similar scheme, but bigger, longer and fatter scallops.

    Thanks.
     
  2. I'm sorry, I'm no help with the photoshop, but your car looks great!

  4. The scallop on the hood will look like bull horns, if you go cream.

    Light metalic green with the green you already like, is what I'd recommend.
