That van was the first thing I saw.... doesnt say much about me huh ? :lol:
Anyway.... Phil, the black version will be killer !

Phil, is that Dean in there with red hair?

Personally I love the red pinstripe with the black, Phil.

Maybe it's just the lack of some details in the rendering but I detect an absence of door handles? Are you shaving them?

The matte on the hood and bumpers is a nice touch too. You guys do some incredible work in that shop. I will have to drive the Camaro up there in the spring since you guys are so close to me.

Do you think that the repaint will hurt the price of the car? The only reason I say that is because the buyers will know it is not the original paint and it was a reshoot over another paint job. Unless you did it differently than I am thinking.

I don't think anything the Roadster Shop does would hurt the price of a car.

I very much like the black.......it's the best color option......that's why my cars are black, my bike is black, my guitar is black.....:cheering:


Anyway, they only way I can the respray hurting the value is because the car was a bit iconic in the green.....love it or hate it the green stood out. If your a potential buyer thinking "I want that car I saw in the Magazines!" then you may be a bit disappointed. However if your the guy thinking man I want that car but that color.....ughhh......well than it's perfect.

I think the stripes are understated enough to be attractive with out being obnoxious.

Kenny, don't worry about that one either!!!

I said we were going to build something new for 2011... meet "The Vandal". Pro-touring 66 Econoline parts van and shop truck.

Well, we did not do the Maco scuff-and-shoot approach on this car, so I don't think the color change will have any negative effect on the price. We are getting close to 400 hours in the paint job to make sure that it is absolutely perfect.

Thanks man! We were a little concerned about losing the iconic value of the car, but it was such a love it or hate it color that we felt leaving it green might hurt the sale of the car more than it would help.


Door handles are staying. While a cleen black Chevelle does look good, this just is not that car. If it had stock bumpers/trim, stockish interior... I would definitely say straight black would be the way to go. With everything done to the car, I think a straight black paint job would look like we left something out. It definitely needs the matte finnishes and red accents.

Hells Yeah !
