    Thanks, that's one more pic I can save in my inspiration folder. This is the pic I have of it which I think I also found here on the HAMB some years ago.

    I can't explain it, it's kinda the opposite of what I typically go for, but this one just looks right to me.

    One pic pre-scallops, taken by Luke from Kustoms Illustrated.
    The car was painted by HAMB member Chopt55bc

    After I posted that and thought about it that is what I thought.
    He and I used to set up at car shows. He would stripe and I would sell old car magazines.

  28. Wow, looks cool in orange, although I have to say, I prefer the purple.

    @gonmad thanks for the encouragement that the Lavender Lady sounds like a kustom....I will forever laugh about a young Carson saying it sounds like an import. Classic!!!

    Here's a good story about the "Royal Empress"...

    It was reported that, while under construction, D'Agostino and Bill Reasoner were looking at the car, when Reasoner commented, "How about we take the fins off?"; to which D'Agostino replied, "I'll have to think about that."
    "Well", said Reasoner, "while you're thinking about it, I'm going to do it!", and proceeded on the spot!

    The results speak for themselves...
