    Yikes, I've got a free trial of Corel Photo-Paint here but I can't figure it out, at least not with my kid buggin me to play with him anyway. So if any of you talented folks are bored I've got a little photo shop project for ya...

    I'm lowering my poncho, I've got 2" drop spindles for it and I'm going to cut the back coils. I'm thinking nice and even but I wouldn't mind seeing what it would look like with the back a little lower too.

    Here's the best side view pic I have, I levelled and cropped it a bit as it was a large, crooked photo. I'd also like to see it with spider caps (no beauty rings), and white walls. I could only find one decent side profile pic of spider cap and white wall but the white wall is too wide, I'd like something a little thinner.

    Now if you're really bored you can remove the emblem behind the wheel well, take the gold off this 55 chevy and put some thin scallops along the bottom half of the car, underneath the chrome. I know it's a tall order so thanks in advance for any and all help!

    Oh yeah, maaaybe some spotlights too???

    Thanks, that was quick! That's a nice height and I'm actually kind of digging the gold wheels, though I'll be keeping mine black. I think you nailed the whitewalls too.

    Just noticed you shaved the locks, handles and badging as well. I hadn't planned on doing that but damn, that looks pretty good.

    thanks for the help guys, that gives a great idea of what I want to do have it. I plan on a set of 17 inch salt flat rims too.

    Hey there. My family is debating on what color for the 51'. Could someone do one in silver and another in Ice blue. As you can see the interior is Cardinal red so I am fairly limited on colors. We are also open to other ideas. Thanks in advance.

  14. Hey guys I'm not sure if it's already been answered here but I am interested in trying my hand at photoshopping and was wondering what software was being used. On youtube it seems like a lot are using adobe cs5 but the $1000 price tag is too much for me to try something out and if I had it I'd rather spend it on the car. This is just for fun not for any business any suggestions for someone wanting to start out?

    awesome Bob, thanks! Youre always the decision dictator for me on this thing, haha. I think it will look pretty good. Ill probably run a bullet cap of some sort to try to give it a finished look. Thanks again

    This might make a bitchin' Ranchero, by welding up the rear doors, with swept-back roof styling and vertical back window (Merc "Breeze-way style).

    I hope corn boy won’t mind me stealing his shot for this. But I was wondering if you fellows could re-do his roadster black-on-black-on-black with an orange engine block. It’s an imagine I have in my head, and I’m wondering if it will look as good on paper.

    I think this is the first time that ugly ass model of Cadillac looked good. You rock James D!
