    Black done like this is perfect. It takes a lot of work to get it there, but the results stunning.
    I love it.
     
  3. Here's another Rex Rod & Chassis "Casual Hot Rod" painted black (albeit satin vs. shiny):

  6. I'm always in the process of picking the color for my car. This sure makes me lean towards black.

    - only posting as an excuse to share Keith and teams work. I win the lotto he’s one of the first people I’m calling 5DB55A10-D0FA-4DF2-8D56-08FBBA134789.jpeg 6BF83BB5-E500-4A91-9C7D-5CC0B80DCA29.jpeg 93E36E8B-D158-4123-9B90-09DD2A7EF395.jpeg B3B1BD18-E0D6-41AA-822C-88C0400CDB41.jpeg

    I'd say that it doesn't matter what traditional color Keith and Co painted something it's their touch that makes it stand out. As much as I like black a lot of the details get lost on a black car and especially if it isn't out in the sunlight.
    I just like the serous attention to even the smallest detail that makes their cars so right but don't look overdone.

    Damn right, black it is. I keep looking for a color for my coupe, but I know in my heart, there's only one color for a hot rod.

    Black fenders were a dealer option.

    The blackest of the black on my 60 Pontiac bubble top. There is no tint added to the black pigment. The body is completely rust free with no rust repair as it didn't need any. Untold hours of blocking, sanding and sprayed in a backyard paint booth. Great black paint that will win "best paint" every time.. To me every car looks better in black. IMG_0144.JPG

    I've never seen anything like it. Oh, maybe someday in my life I will ride in such a car. This is the power of time. Am I the only fan of such vehicles? Hot Rod is generally one of the most beautiful cars that I have seen. However, it seems to me that black is the best color for this car. Green or red will not look like this. Sorry, of course, for my emotions, but this is just incredible. Or maybe someone will give a link to Instagram. I just often sit in this social network and would like to subscribe to a similar page. I also once put up photos of muscle cars on my Instagram page. Still, now I'm thinking of buying some advertising for myself. Thank you again for the photos!
