I might post up some picks of it if I can find my camera,

Hey Keith...It was nice meeting you and hanging out at Dan's talking cars,etc. Thanks for the compliments. Congrats on getting the car and you definitely need to start a thread and post pics. :thumbsup:

I cant wait to see it, either. I really need to stop by and see you guys. (and the shop, and the car(s)). looks really good.

I thought you were coming over months ago during the summer. You know you are welcome anytime.

Its the original color Glacier blue with cortex silver DX1 stripe. It starts just like a bumble bee stripe, but in the pic you can see how the stripe turns and goes up the hood and eventually tapers to a point.

Thanks Scott. Im hoping so, because when I pick it up Sat, the rest is on me to finish (well except interior).

Since its my wife's car, it better be nice when finished or Im in trouble. :_paranoid

Thx Mario. I have never seen this color on a camaro in person, just in pics over the years. It is different and since its the original color, it should please some of the purist's too :unibrow:

How is your car coming along?

Thanks for the compliments guys. You cant wipe the smile off my wife's face.

James. I know the color you are talking about. Its pretty close and I believe the 66-67 chevelles had the same color but called a different name of course. You know how GM was back then...same color with 5 different names. :yes:

DOOM 11-13-2011 04:10 PM

Jay I can't say enuff how awsome that color choice is !!! The car is going to be stunning!!!:wow:

Payton King 11-14-2011 06:17 AM

Really looks nice!
 
That was the original color of my car. Makes me have second thoughts on the yellow.

Look forward to seeing it completed.

Thanks John. You made any progress on your Nova?

syborg tt 11-14-2011 07:40 AM

I can't tell you how much I love this color. The 70 I am working on was this color originally and I am so happy you painted your car this color. As now I can see what it actually looks like and it's awesome. !!!!!

Thanks! I was hoping the color would turn out well and my wife and I cannot be more pleased. And since its her car, if she is happy, everybody is happy. :thumbsup:

So, are you going to paint your 70 this color now?

DIGI-TAILS 11-14-2011 08:02 AM

Very Nice!!! :thumbsup: Superb choice of color... :)

Yep - or something very similar.

tones2SS 11-14-2011 05:44 PM

Great color. That stripe/stripe color go great with that blue.
Very nice Jay.

Frankenstine 11-14-2011 06:02 PM

Hey Jay, The color on that car is outstanding, I have never seen that combo before, All I can say is WOW, cant wait to see it finished, Makes me want too go and cash in my 401 and get mine going in that direction????? and to think I just got mine up on jackstands to get started taking it apart, seeing her car makes me wanna get it going and get it done, screw the 3-5 year plan LOL :D

Jay Hilliard 11-16-2011 05:51 PM

Thanks Keith. I do like the color/combination. Come down anytime and check it out. You finding anything unexpected on your car?

Take your time to make your decisions. Worst thing is to decide/buy something and change your mind. That kind of stuff can be a budget killer quick.
Nice thing about this site, is people will try their best to help out, answer questions, etc. There is a wealth of knowledge here.

Simmo 11-17-2011 12:12 AM

You've cracked it with that colour, original and very very cool.

HOLOHAN'S HOT ROD SHOP 11-18-2011 05:17 AM

Very nice, subtle, classy look with the body and stripe colors, should look great with Donna's wheel choice

Jay Hilliard 11-18-2011 10:07 AM

Thanks Dan! It all started with your excellent metal work. :thumbsup:

Thank you for all your help and guidance you have given me. Very much appreciated buddy.

Jay Hilliard 12-01-2011 08:55 AM

Look what UPS dropped off
 
Received Rushforth Super Spokes for the wife's car. 18's with polished lip and brushed/coated centers.
