    Well my son is 21 and is on the verge of finally getting his car on the road, with finally getting a little color on it. He went through the bagged mini-truck phase and is now into Bellflower styled customs. His inspiration car from Donnie Bairds multi color 63 Olds. It has complete air suspension, Silver Flake roof Tru-Spokes whitewalls and will get Bellflower tips for exhaust. Needs to save up more cash to get the bumpers done and re-do the silver factory interior.

    I like it, the wheels fit the car perfectly. I look forward to seeing completed pics. I have a somewhat similar '64 myself.

    Thanks dude, not bad for a kids car!! I know you thought my Pontiac with the rusted roof and tops of the fenders was a "lazy man's" paint job, but hey I painted that one to look like that... It is fake and actually took awhile to do as well. just diferent tastes on different cars...

    Yuppers, it look like he did his homework on that one. Nice choice of colors too.
     
  6. That thing looks awesome!! It's cool to see a dad supporting his son's work!
     
  7. Can't go wrong copying something Donnie does, that guy is a master.

    Its been a lot of fun. A little tough making him wait till he has the cash to do it himself...

    I'm liking that alot. What color green is that? I'm not usually a fan of green cars but I like that particular color. She's gonna look good when done.

    Great choice of green. It ties in the era you are building after. Super subtle. And the wire wheels give it an elegant look.

    The color is pistachio green from a 06 Toyota. Originally we were going a little brighter but are glad we got this one. Time to color sand and polish

    looks good. Nothing wrong with using Donnie as an inspiration. He is a nice guy and his cars are great looking
