Hey guys, I am searching for pics of a light blue 32 3 window from across the pond. It was in Street Rodder a few years back but I can find the issue. Anyone have pics? Or know the issue it was in? TIA

Did it have red wire wheels & a fully dressed flattie in it?

If so, it was built by Bernie Chodosh. Other than that, I can't offer any more info. But that one was built at least 10 years ago.

Anyone?

No, I shot that in England with the metallic purple 3W (the car in the pic isn't it). Can't remember the bloke's name. I'll dig it up.

Thats almost identical to Bernie's old car, only his was flattie powered & ran wires.

I am talking at least 10 years ago tho...

Maybe not the same car at all.

Thanks guys, I found that issue when I got home. It was the only one we were missing out of 2000 at the shop!?!

The reason I am asking is I am considering that color for the touring over the darker/brighter blue I already bought.

THAT 3 W is my current project - of which I have yet to decide what kolor to paint the X&%@&%#X!#&#X thing !!

I put it in tinted primer to get an idea of what it would look like - I like it but Im also considering another kolor.

BTW...that Limey 3W is a killer ride...Ive had pix of it for a while and have always liked it. My ride is similar but is Flathead powered.

The lite blue is a good kolor dude - hides a lot of dirt, it really pops and is easy to maitain. If your ride is an eraly lookin unit.....u could do worse.

Whats the body like ?
