Default opinions wanted

Folks,

I thought I'd throw this out there for a little discussion and get some your opinions. I am quickly coming to a point where I'm gonna have to commit to the ultimate aesthetic design of Alchemy. Soon I’ll begin working with Casti for a rendering. I’m very lucky in that regard.

I began this project with the goal of creating a so-called sleeper car. 1969 in appearance. 2010 in performance.

Hears a picture of what I'd be perfectly happy having the car look like. I'd have slightly larger/wider wheels and tires, though. And, yes I do like vinyl tops.



However, I'm also really liking the idea of a modern dark green pearl paint that flops black. Black hockey stripes as well. To further complicate matters, I really like the Billet Specialties Legacy 2G wheels.

Here's a pic of a Jag with the Botanical Green pearl paint showing its lighter shade:



And here's a pic showing its darker flop:



Here's a link to a pic of the Billet Specialties Legacy 2G as well as a couple of pictures. Its powder coated Gray.

So, if I go with the Botanical Green and Legacy 2-G wheels have I deviated too far from an orginal 69ish look?

Opinions appreciated.

Thanks!
