Back on this thread in '06 i replied i wished i could add a pic of my 5 window but it was a rusted pile of parts.... Well now i finally can. simple, black... Tony
Picked this 1 up 4 weeks ago,UGLY FLAT GREEN on a Black chassis What else do ya do? Only had 150 miles on the build
Mine is headed that way....."I call it...."TWO TONE BLACK WITH A WIDE BLACK STRIPE"........ "TWO TONE BLACK WITH A WIDE BLACK STRIPE"........
Friend brought his '32 3 window over for me to pinstripe...wanted to know what I had in mind...so I took my brush and put something simple down for him to look at.......you'll probably think I did it on a piece of glass or a mirror...BUT...it's the trunk of the BLACK '32...It was like looking into a mirror it was so Black....you can even see his one legged brother in the background.....I thought this was a neat picture...and yes, it is a little crooked....it was done without laying any lines down to go by...he liked the design and that's why I took the picture...never knew it would turn out like this....just wanted it for a reference to put the same thing back on his trunk after I washed it off and put down some reference lines to make it straight..........simple things fascinate simple minds..hehehe
