Yeah a lot of people have commented on the simple paint on it. I was going to paint it back a brighter white until I saw two other cars and then I came up with the idea to merge them both. It will probally be atleast a month (or more) before I get the car back.

LOL @ viking!!! I grew up watching that car..........LMAO!

nope not at all. I have had amny paint jobs look similar to what I have done.....then others are dead on

As I had mentioned earlier in this post I had e-mailed the person that painted the car that I liked about his feelings on using the scheme. He said that he had no problem with it and said thanks.

Like others also said, some painters take it as a compliment, and that appears to be the case here too.

I'm definately at ease with it now....LOL!

Stay tuned for some pictures in the next few days!!!! My car is nearing completion!!!!!!!
