Features If you have pics of scallop paint jobs, post em up

Dad's 56 Bel-Air sports coupe done 3 days after he bought it new in Oklahoma city by a kid that worked for him. sorry about the picture qty its from 1959...

by the way if anybody that was around in Oklahoma city from 59 to mid 60's remembers this car or knows what happened to it let me know. Dad and I looked for it for years. We never did find out what happened to it after his buddy Jerry bought it...
thanks,

Here are what did our Model A.






And then matched them on my son's hotrod...

 

How I did them on my '60 NewYorker some time ago...




Here's photoshop I made once of some scallops on my '57 Chrysler...




'64 Chrysler...

 

Wow I love your work! That's a '59 Mercury right?

 

I apologize if this isn't HAMB friendly...but, it was asked to post a picture of scallop work I did. Here's my first car I began when I was 15:








Final rendering of what it will look like soon (but a more finished roof with either lace or more scallop and panel painting work):

 

I painted this a few years back.

 

My '57 Bel Air was scalloped in 1991
by Michigan's own Paul Hatton

 

A couple more of Paul Hatton's scallop

Everytime I see this car I like it even more. Beautiful!

 

Thanks alot Racrdad

 

Not the best picture, but here's one of the first scallop jobs I ever saw. Owner was Joe Lorini of Mattydale, NY. Car purchased new by Joe when he was 17, sent right to Lenny Smith for body and paint work. Color was dark purple with metallic rose scallops, outlined with white. Two-door Bel Air post, stock 265 V8 with 3 speed column. Photographed in 1959 by Dennis Friga.

A little ot but:d

 

try this again, sorta ot but then you said scallops

 

This is one heck of a car. Love it!!!

 

Here is one I did a while back

 

Here are some real simple ones I put on my 58.

 

Crude but effective

 

Here's some from my old mag covers. I added the scallops to the first pic during algebra class in highschool!

 

Here are some pics of 61 Impala I built in the 90's.
This was before Bubble Tops were popular. Now the 61's are done as resto mods. They are nice but not my style

 

Wow, that looks really awesome! Done!!!

 

Wow, my Dad is a huge fan of the early '60s Chevys that are fixed up in this style. That looks very nice, you did an excellent job.
