I would go for a dark burnt orange metallic......with some black accents, like some pinstripes.... You wouldn't happen to have any pics of that Buick?? Clk2HlpSetiCty:::PayIt4ward |

I would go for a dark burnt orange metallic......with some black accents, like some pinstripes.... Oh, I wish.......I think I have an old B&W photo somewhere.......but of course, that was loooooooooong before digital cams.........and I don't have a scanner at present....even if I had that old photo at my fingertips............ It actually looked great in black and white........the contrast was very good. You'll just have to trust me........after a month of sanding and misting with lacquer, the results were very good....... But you have to devote a lot of time and effort to it......... But not sure if SGIC wants to spend that much time on it.

Who says you need a scanner? Digital cameras can take fine pictures of printed pictures too I'd guess. |

Fire Engine Red ... or as I like to call it "Peace Officer High-Visibility Red." Paint it the same color as asphalt, you'll get fewer tickets. |

hey everyone Just thought i would ask your guys/gals opinions on this. Would you rather see a stock bumper on it (current one), European bumper or no bumpers at all |

Stock is best. What you do today you will have to live with tonight |

hey everyone Euro bumpers because they streamline the car and with the right ones they don't look just hung on like the stockers. Match them to your paint job too. |

hey everyone Depends...do you plan on blinging the wheels? Do you want to make it like a strret racer? If you want to keep the stock look, but have some power under the hood, that's allright. Real street sleepers are fun. Clk2HlpSetiCty:::PayIt4ward |

These may help: How about a shot in that dark burnt orange metallic I suggested.... "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." |
