    Sweet! I love the stories behind Old cars! This one has had about 30 owners so i guess it has à lot of history! I know the rear hasbeen raised like hell by à previous owner....real 80's style! :) or as i call it: kramforslook!

    Well Im starting to figure out this GIMP program and made this Stude up, but I cant do coloring yet so I wonder if any of you guys would like to paint it white and do a Watson looking blue outlining job on it?

    Would someone Photoshop my car with spun aluminum (moon) hubcaps?
    Thanks

  12. Hey guys. I'm still a newbie to PS. So I was wondering if anybody could add some white scallops like in the top two pictures to my red truck? I think they would look pretty cool. Thanks for your help.

    Looks like you have a good start. Check your "tools" and look for a function that can highlight the body only, then convert to black and white. There should also be a line tool that you can use to make enough long and short lines to make the scallops. Thats what I did and through trial and error I've learned a thing or two. Good luck!

    Here's a project I recently posted for Koolkemp on his '47 Ford Reserection thread. He's got some pretty cool ideas, a badass '47 Ford in the works and ideas for this '51 Mercury, which brought about this photoshop. Check out his thread, you'll be amazed at what he's done with some pretty rusty stuff.

    had some down time at work today so I decided to give my truck a chop. Lowered 2-3 inches with 17" rims and bigger tires to fill the fenders.

    Ok, guys, I have a favor to ask.

    We are redoing the FlatCad this winter, with some aero mods to try and reach to 'magical' 200 mph mark.

    I'd like to roll it out with a new paint scheme for this next year. Same number, still at least partly red, possibly flames? Hoping someone might have a cool paint scheme for Quest 200!

    Thank you in advance!

    I was kicking around the idea of a 57 chevy front bumper on my 55 pontiac. Can anyone make it happen, with the bullets and some type of grille?

    my request..
    31 Model A, was black when the red tint was done to the windows. Now that the car is burgundy I'm thinking of yellow tint. And a friend gave me some blueish green film to try.
    Can someone try those colors out for me? Thanks in advance!

    Here's the yellow.
    Tried a few combos in green/blue but nothing looked good, so far.

    That's only yellow if you're color blind or have a defective monitor.

    Wow! Thanks. Yours is definitely yellow. And thanks for the blueish. It seems that the yellow is a better color for it. The only other color I can think of that might look good is a smoke color. But yellow is more 60's.

    I grew up during the 50's and 60's and don't ever remember seeing a window tinted yellow - not even while tripping.

    Not a bad look, but in reality I think you'd need to modify the bumper as well.

    You're right I'm sure. Well, I think it still looks great with the yellow.
