    Thanks a lot for that - it still looks yellow though - is that a bad picture to work with? I could try to find another one

    I liked the black version but imho the gold looks even better. Build thread time! :D

    "it still looks yellow though - is that a bad picture to work with? I could try to find another one."

    Fender, no I suggested that color because it was more in keeping with the style and period. Here's the
    color you suggested.

    Ohhh I gotcha. Thank you!

    I change my mind back and forth with the white roof vs black. I like them both. The white roof ties in with the white wall tires.

    Would any of you wizards care to drop this Holden's grille down to splash pan level, and extend the hood to meet? Thanks! (And if not, Thanks anyway!)

    EDIT; themoose, that's the same car! Lots of nice features, like those Olds-ish headlights, but IMHO the stock grille is positioned just to high.

    Hey, I'm building a 57 gasser, I was wondering if you all can make it white, give it the name "Homegrown" in leaf letters on the side like my dad's old Opel, pictured, but scaled down to only run the legnth of the door, and give it green tinted windows? And if not thanks anyway!

    I see how I kinda misspoke, the letters are leaves, it kinda sounded like I meant gold leaf. But that's amazing

    Dude, you're a wizard. That's wicked. If I can ask you one more thing, can you darken the tint up a little like this mustang?

    Trying to fix a bad chop on this coupe and don't want to re-paint the DSCN2517.JPG whole car. Was wondering what it would look like with black from the beltline up, going out on the cowl ( under the gas tank), and black chasing around the quarters on the 5/8" body line, down to the back and returning along the bottom to the cowl? Thanks, Mike B.

    (Sorry if directions are confusing!!)

    I agree a lighter color I think would be better. Gary

    Yes kinda like Wellington White Ford color, only much more classier,
    Vanilla is a really neat color on New CHRYSLER autos, A friend told me that it has to be bot thru the dealership. but i don't believe him !!!

    and paint those four bars on the rear flat black, so they disappear..my.02

    Thanks MOOSE, love your talent !!!

    1--Yes- the 4 bar linkage is definitely getting blacked out. Thanks.
    2--I like the black ( probably flat) on the roof and window posts, but would probably leave the gas tank green and eliminate the body line that chases down the 1/4 and across the bottom. Thanks for the visual package Moose, I really appreciate your ability to do this " photo- manipulation".
    3-- light color doesn't look right to me- I'm trying to stick to a "hot rod" look, and that's bordering on "street rod" to me. I'm more into low key/ no flash.

    Thanks everyone for your input- paint colors are a tough decision! ( too many!)
