Art & Inspiration Green Hot Rods & Customs

Not exactly green hot rods...but I do LIKE GREEN
In the back of my mind, I'm always planning to paint them Brewster green...but for some reason, they always end up flat black
But the rims (hoops & centers) are ALWAYS Grabber green...as well as many accoutrements

My old green car.

 

Mostly green, the rest will come next summer.

 

Only things I like green are money and grass. There’s a reason for that.......

I can’t see green very well. What is called a red-green Color blindness. I see some shades of reds and greens, but if I don’t have something to compare them too, they don’t look green or red to me. All this time, I thought HRP and Brenda’s wagon was brown.

I bought an OT Exploder once on a cloudy day. Under a street light, it looked blue to me. Next day, I thought somebody had swapped cars with me! In the sunlight, it was green! And so was I! Wife said, “I thought you knew it was green”. I had no idea!
So, if I call your green car brown or red car black, just overlook me. I just can’t help myself!
So, now you know why I won’t have a green car. It embarrassing to go to the wrong car in a parking lot, believe me, I’ve done it!

 

Here are a couple of my very favorites; next post will be several of ones I also like. Amazingly I don't have any pix of Bob K's green Chevy ragtop on my computer. It's one of my very favorites because it was Bob Klessig's.

Green cars are bad luck going back to Gaston Chevrolet being killed in a green race car.
