Tyler,
I'm wondering what the spoiler would look like if you brought it over to the top of the quarters and let it disappear into them. Basically where it breaks and goes to the trunk, extend it over. Just a thought. HEEP |
It looks great Tyler. I look forward to seeing it in paint.

Looks good and that big block is menacing!!:yes: :yes:
|
So our body shop has put it into paint now! We are going to be laying out the matte graphics this weekend, so you guys will like to see it after that. Got some neat ideas going on it.
Here ya go http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...ps58492b00.jpg http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...psc568e4a8.jpg http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...pse517f248.jpg http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...psde0385be.jpg http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...psc909e659.jpg http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...pscfd22957.jpg |
Just in case anyone was wondering, the entire car is reproduction panels (Dynacorn) and we were able to get the gaps in great shape with minor work. Everything worked great and we didnt have to cut any edges etc, no major surgery for gaps!
|
mmmm minty :lol: Looks great!
|
Got some more pics, we are going to stripe it tomorrow. Came out really nice! If your wondering why its cleared before the stripes, they are being shot in satin.

That's a great color. Car is looking great:D
|
:thumbsup: show me more! Very nice job so far!
|
I just layed out the stripes today with our painter, so I will update you later this week. I am so pleased with this one......it looks sick!
|
paint and body really look nice,great work
|
Ok I wanted to wait till everything was done to show you, but this is looking too good to keep a secret!

It carries onto the trunk, and there are some accents that finish it off. We were contemplating doing some sort of pinstripe outline, but wanted to keep it simple. Wait until we see the whole thing together, then we can spitball on that!
|
Less is more, looks good
|
I like it!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: |
Very nice. What color green is that?
|
Ford Calypso Gree, early nineties mustang, escort, truck etc!
Its funny how colors that look horrible on the car they came on can transform on a different canvas! Thanks for the compliments |
Tyler, those strips are sick. Sorry, I may have to borrow those from you for my 72. Just forewarning you. LOL!! :peepwall: :peepwall:
|
Very nice
|
Couldnt of picked a better car to do and awesome fab work....... but wow just not sold on that wheel or color choice!
Best of luck going to be a sweet ride. |
Look forward to seeing the progress through this built!!

Wait till you see it all together, I think it works well. Its not the highest budget car we have had the pleasure of doing, but damn it its on the top as my favorite right now! Ya its not EFI, 6 speed etc but it has been so much fun! Can't wait to shake it down and put some seat time in it! |

It looks damn good to me Tyler. Even with a $400k-$550k build, somebody can pick out something they wouldn't like. |
You don't need my permission! We all take inspiration off other great ideas on this forum, and I think its partly why we post our ideas on here as well!
Imitation is flatery right??? I mean, I have seen similar ideas to this as well. Roadster Shops first version of their chevelle was green with matte stripes. I did my own take on the hood stripe. My trunk is totally different, but you could say i got some inspiration from them on it! |
Now for a post-baby birth update! Got the car back from our painter, going to start assembly. Got one more thing left to do on the stripe, but other than that the paint is done. Ralph did an amazing job!

Tyler the car looks awesome !!!:trophy-1302:
|
|
Looking good Tyler. Are you gonna outline the stripes with anything/color?? :popcorn2:
|
I think we are going to leave it. Keep it simple? We couldn't go insane on extra spending over the straight up paint job on graphics, and being a satin stripe we would have eaten up a ton of dough to go more complicated. Not to take away from it, Ralph did a 100% a plus job!
|
She's looking good Tyler. Love the stripe idea on the hood.
