Two tone...
OK, I saw a photo of a car similar to mine as a two tone, so I tried it on my own. What do you guys think? Is it a good route to go? I have to say I like it a lot!

p.s. hopefully, unlike my other posts, this will not ignite a political discussion

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Well my car is currently sitting in the shop. I managed to barter a website for about $3500.00 in paint and bodywork. Hopefully I will get the car back sometime next week. Here are some pics in the shop:

One color? Where is the fun in that?
What I have decided on is having the bulk of the car in weindveil blue (same as the new Mustangs) and the top only will be bright white tinted with a frosty blue pearl. It should be sweet!"Better living through reckless experimentation"

A car with that body style just crys out for a white top.
Besides, there are no rules in hot rodding!
My little old grandma use to drive a bitchin 64 T-bird, in pearl pink, and yes, she drove it to church!
Wow, I miss my grandma, been nearly four years since she passed. Maybe I should dedicate the Crysler to her, call it PROJECT: Granny"Better living through reckless experimentation"

Yeah, with that much sheetmetal, maybe a two tone will break it up a little. Should look nice. I'm not a two tone guy either, but in this case it might actually visuallly lower the car somewhat.
Post some pictures when done.
