keep em coming....Boones i agree that is what i was looking for...i was thinking 3/4 white walls with bullet centercaps.also i was thinking for a bottom color of satin tangerine orange and leave the top ivory so it looks like an ice cream...just a thought....
Here's my take. Shave the handles, gas filler, nice shade of blue on top . . . wheels, and tinted windows.
Man that thing would be awsome chopped, but though your not going to do that i would suggest 1 solid color instead of a different top color. nice car by the way. -jake
Is that true? learn something new every day! and i guess the satin red gloss black combo would be pretty damn cool! -jake
that satin w/gloss would be bad ass.i will consider that...i have seen a shoebox painted that way it looked pretty good....
SteveB hit it .. a flat/ primer orange with white (I was planning on changing mine to that for this summer to give me some inspiration to keep driving it and to keep folks looking at it.). How about keeping it the same color for now, but doing a burgandy flaked roof, with the small white walls and chrome reverse wheels with spider caps, you would have an instant classic... no body would know mine was in the same show... I want to see what the rims look like behind the baby moons, if it does not have the 10 lug rims, maybe some spider caps to go with the thin whitewall. If not it is not that much money to get a set of the right ones.
Boones man i am sorry i didnt know that was the color scheme you were after..i chose that because the interior of mine is orange and cream...
Probably not what you had in mind, but it's one of those "what would you do with it if it were yours" sort of things; I see you've also discovered that any car looks better when parked by a fucking Aztec!
Heres one thats on eBay right now...........definatly different. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6173&item=4522976159&rd=1
I went back to the narrow white walls, but didn't do the wheels. I can't quite get the flake thing happening, but maybe the color is there. Steve
definately different.could you try the tan bottom and maroon roof,Please? you are the one on the right track.Thanks man...
Do the white and orange,... Especially if the interior is the color you say it is... Do not worry about me... That chopped primer thing is so frickin ugly.. It is so hard to chop on of these style wagons correctly and not make it looks either bottom heavy or out of proportion.. Squigy, More then likely my wagon is getting parked for this year except for a few long road trips. This summer my Sedan is getting it time in the sunshine.. Here is a great orange (flat)
thats the color i wanted.....thanks Boones.i just didnt want to piss you off,since you are helping me..i guess great minds think alike
Hatch's version 2dr! Now pan-cake the roof slightly, body white, roof black w/medium coarse 'flake. Astro's and red-line's ('cause it's not popular!). Or custom off-set steel wheel's painted white w/'56 Chev dog dish hub cap's.
i couldnt resist photoshopping this....chop,section, shave door handles/gas..i would've left trim but i had to get rid of it cus it broke...colorwise i wasn't sure so i guess that means i like it how it is? sorry...last window looks like shit
