  1. Alright, I wanna play now.

    How about a dark blue suede, lowered, with Hollywood flipper caps?

    Why would you paint it? I can't photoshop, but how about leave the body shiny, lower it, and paint just the white roof? Darker blue, pearl white, or maybe even black?
     
  3. I think you could do just about anything to a 55 Chevy and it would still look good:cool:

  4. I personally can't stand that color blue-- it's way too Smurfy for my liking. And eventually it will need to be painted, as there are so many flaws it that paint job that don't show up in photos...

    Thanks, that's nice. It gives me a good idea and shows that it will look good.
    I'm going to be using Edelbrock valve covers and gold Rochester carbs on the tri power.

  22. Madfish...A friend of mine bought a new 351 Mustang in 1969 and painted it with lace...It was the talk of the town. Brings back memories.

    Does anyone here know how to automatically match colors in MS paint? I mean if I have something that I want to erase by painting over it and match the surrounding color. I can never get the colors to match. Anyone care to share?
     
  25. I haven't used MS paint for quite some time so I'm not really up speed with the latest version but they must have an eyedropper tool to sample the color your trying to match to get you pretty close.
     
  26. Moose , thanks the T looks great and got here in fast time . Tell daughter that , like you , are the best ! image.jpg
     
  27. Thanks Blue...Looks great...Should be a big hit at the show
