Paint Concepts for my 68 Bird What do ya think
 

here are some concepts Ben made up for my 68 Firebird. What do you think?

I like 1B. :thumbsup:

I like 1 or 2

I like 1,2,5 Plus silver and blue are way cool :thumbsup:

1,2, and 6!

Good color choices!

Tim

I like number 3. It emphasizes the body lines nicely.

Oh yeah I like number 5.

I like 1B. :thumbsup:

Its already been done and was featured in phr a couple of years ago

1a .......

I like 5 or 6, the blue on top with silver on bottom = Bad ass!

You mean this one.

Steve -
I like 1B and then 1.

6!
 

Definetely 6!


Lead

1A and then 3. 3 needs a little more snazzy pinstripping and it would be the #1 pick.

1B also...looks wicked all blue.

The last one for sure....it's at least a little different, and as much as I like the guy the two tone is just to Chip Foose looking...

I would go with #6. It looks great. Will probably cost less and it will not go out of style so quickly.

1A! :thumbsup:

Love #6! Way cool :cool:

Hey thanks for all the great comments every one. :thumbsup: Still not sure but I am leaning toward the first one but with a light blue stripe instead of the dark blue. I think the actual silver will be some what lighter then the picture is showing. Chip who? Two tone cars have been around way before Mr. Foose was doing it. Its just that he makes it look do darn good when he does it :cool: :hail:

That's a tough choice. I like pic #2 with the red stripe dividing the 2 colors. Either way, it shall look awesome. Post pics when done!!!!! :thumbsup: :cool:

getting close!
 

Paint is on still needs some final assembly and I get to bring it home next week finish putting it back togeather. :D
Man those rims are awfull
I will try to post some better pictures next week. Wait till ya see the hood :unibrow:

3 and 6. Six my fav

Where'd the pic in post #23 go???

I Like 5

6, because.......

ITS DIFFERENT !

I don't know I reloaded it hopefully it will be there now

I like the FOOSE Design , change Blue to pew or Black and you'll be Money! :thumbsup:

I go with what Speedster said: 1B :thumbsup:

However, you need to change the rims. Multi-spoke rims look great on Firebirds.

MY two cents....

R.P.

#2.
rick k

Coming along very nicely!!! :thumbsup:

More pics!!!

I had a very hard time picking out rims. At first (3 years ago) when I started this project I wanted crager SS rims but later I swore i would never buy the 5 spoke style because at least around here EVER OTHER car had them. I looked for like 2 years and could not find anything I liked better. I just do not like most of the Muli-spoke rims so I ended up with Coddinton JYD rims. One nice thing about rims though is they come off pretty easy if I want a change later.

I liked #1A and #6. As for wheels, why not go w/ a 17 or 18 inch version of the original Pontiac rim from Wheel Vintiques.

concept 3

Bump for an update and more pics!!!!

Gotta give the Firechicken some love. :cheers:

Here ya go. Feeling the love
 

Here a few of the latest. No its not a 4X4 I still need some major work on the stance. I hope to get it back in the heated shop next week ( high of -1 this week end here ) and continue to put it back together and figure out what i am going to to about the stance.

Looks great Steve! What colors did you go with?

Damn that looks good! :thumbsup:

Looking really great!

I have to say the tailights on the early firebirds are one of my favorite styles of all time.

Make sure you post some pics when you get your stance right. Would love to see how it looks.
