come on guys
i really want input......from alot of you.......
im getting ready to kick some ass on the prime and block deal....so paint is close.....im NOT using LOUD or WILD main body COLORS.unless your donating them..lol
.im doing ....TWO TONE FOR SURE. kind OVERHAULIN STYLE ...what would FOOSE do?
#1 scheme.because it is a rambler AMERICAN.toyota solara metallic white
down to body line .then red 1/8 stripe front to back then white 1/8 stripe then arrival blue metallic from new chevrolet trucks.down the side and rocker panels.....stripes will be sprayed not brushed over clear....
#2 ....the same white as above then a pewtery/ gold.. seperated by orange/black 1/8 inch stripes
#3 you decide ... let me hear your thoughts........
ps ..im a dork ment for this to be under open disc.
I live the patriotic theme, just dont know how it will look with the stripes, if it would be too much.
So I guess my vote is #2 with a black stripe...I guess I am being a tad conservative, but we will see what others think.

#2. In fact, if you are a fan of Overhaulin and Chip Foose's style, Check out images of the 64 Vette they did. These colors would work perfect on your car.

I like #2 the best. If you are going to paint the roof black...I would add the hood to it.
I cannot do it but have someone photoshop the paint schemes to your car and pick the one that you like. Ultimately, you are the one that is going to be looking at it every day.

Silver or silver pearl top with light metallic or pearl green bottom seperated like it is now. Give it that retro new age look. I know you don't want to be flashy but make it different enough to draw a crowd. Chicayne did that perfectly.

I thought about it some more last night...nothing good on TV and the kids went to bed early. The two tone is the way to go. I think solid black with flames would look good too, but that may be just a little over the top. I also thought about the red,white and blue paint scheme of the the Trans Am series AMC, but that might not work on the body lines of your car.

I think a soft but eye catching color would work. Something like this with some sort of stripe. Classy but mean..... :yes:

Black top from the A pillar back to the ridge at the rear at the top of the quarter with a small accent line on the sail panel to quarter lip.
The rest of the car in light silver.
