    Mikey...I gotta get the old man on the scene...next time, I'll come up Saturday night, and we can stay over...he has to be in bed by around 5, on Sundays! ( truck driver...):D
    He's made cooler mistakes on paint jobs, then some people's best efforts!
    If he can get on board with current technology...
    Thanks for the "Greens" Willysrule!
    And any other contributions, guys...

    Here's some more. Not all gassers and not all panel style paint, but I think they may offer some elements you're interested in.

    Nice! The Green Chevy truck with the Astro's on it has some of what I'm envisioning.

    I forgot about the Merkel car...nice...subtle.

    This is the only other pic I've seen of the multi-colored car. You might try to find someone who has this book to see if there's any additional pics in it.
