Flaked, Scalloped, and Candied the Galaxie Roof!

Scrump-dilly-flake-a-licious!!!

Good job guys.

 

NICE MAN ! I am still on the fence but that flaked top made an already good lookin car even better! cant wait to see the stripes!

WOW, the coolest. It sounds like it was a blast too. Nice job guys

 

WOW...Now that's pretty. I'm inspired to try this at home. Thanks for posting this!

 

Kool!!!!

 

Man, you've probably guaranteed that there's be a dozen look-a-likes popping up all over the place. That is an inspiring project. I'll be sure to give proper credit when someone asks where I got the idea for my '57!

 

Awesome cant wait to see it in Austin

Looks grate it is good to see someone who is not afraid to throw down some flake and candy are you going to stripe around the scallops ? if so what colour

 

Yeah, I'm planning on having the scallops pinstriped. I'll probably try some different colors of pinstriping tape to start with -- a couple colors that we've discussed are black, white, or off-white.

I'm also open to suggestions....

 

"kandy red turns heads!"

i like it, man. looks good.

 

Black would obviously look good and be the safe choice, but I think off-white would have a the greatest impact.

 

I gotta say it man . . . . . . . . . . . with that paint job, your car would look soooo bitchen with some 14" Cragers, i know alot of people are running supremes and cragers, but they do kinda go hand in hand on a 60's custom with a flaked roof.

Maybe a photoshop ?

Looks like all of the practice hiboy got on his custom roof really paid off for you! HA! That pinstripe garage is still yours if you need it.

 

I'm not a huge fan of Cragars, I do like Supremes on the right car, but I have a set of wheels on the way - hopefully they will be here next week. As soon as I get them I'll have the WWW tires switched over and get some pics of them on the car.

I think they will look good on the Galaxie. We'll see....

Thanks, Rod! I will probably take you up on that offer, if everything works out time-wise before the Omaha World of Wheels....

Malcolm

 

And you're not going to spill the beans on what wheels?

 

Yeah, probably some uni lug keystones!

 

"Bad to the Bone"--Man that is so awesome!! The Blue Oval rules again!! Great job dudes, better get out my cheep sun glasses to see that up close. Congrats Nick-Sololobo

 

Very nicely done....hope my roof turns out that well when its done. Really dig the flake under the red and the scallops are dead on. Congrats
