  4. Clean and simple. Its nice to see a car that isn't over engineered. I wouldn't change a thing.

    Thanks for all the kind responses and words of encouragement! Jeff, I almost fell over when we hadn’t posted any pics of the blue and you posted an awesome piece of a 33 in a very similar blue. I told Dean “I guess you picked the right blue, it’s Norwell approved!!”

  8. Love that car. Love that color. May have to rethink my my desire to paint my truck TRD grey.

    I remember talking to Chris at the first DOTD. Great car, well deserved.

  10. I keep going back and looking at the photos. The car is just so tidy and understated. A no nonsense hot rod. I like it, very much.

  12. Is this the same car that's been at the HAMB drags over the years?

    Cactus1, it was previously primer blue. We put an 8 on it later. We ran it at DOTD many times.

    Chris did all of the work on that car and it came out great. He's a talented fabricator and has a good eye for aesthetics. The lines of the chop and overall look of the car are perfect. I am looking forward to Dean's roadster build - it's great to see a kid interested in these old cars.

    "The right stuff!" Color is ideal, my Mom used to call it "Lavender Blue', for that slight tinge of purple in it.
    I painted my chopped '36 3 window this color...LOVELY!

    That car flat grows on you. Everything works together in unison to make the complete just so perfect package. Everything is there for a purpose and the extra detail in a couple of the pieces adds to the total effect rather than distracts.
    I've been eyeballing those colors mentioned and the other colors in that series every time I drive by the dealership or or see one on the street thinking that they would be fantastic traditional hot rod colors. Truth is that they probably don't cause serious budget damage to do either.
