NO...You're not my supervisor!!

I have limited time before heading back to work so we are charging at the moment. My goal is to have it 100% ready for paint, waiting it's turn. Once we hit that stage things will come to a halt on this car for a few.

That's close to what I was trying to describe but I was thinking of a gap in the stripe in the center of the vehicle like M Stielow has on XV. That way it wouldn't look completely traditional. The some breaks in the striping down the center of the vehicle. Something to imply motion even when it's sitting still.
But I wish I had an ounce of skill to draw like that.
I just think silver is not the way to go, as to me it's been done to death IMO.

It's easy to go to far IMO. My goal is to hold true to the original and be trend proof. While I greatly appreciate the modern suspension and engine in these cars, I also love the classic paint layouts and interior...to a point. What color hasn't been over done? I love the burn orange, similar to what's on Bad Penny just as much as I do the Silver on Mayhem. Sooner or later the car will let me know.

I'd beat it up for a few years if it was mine.

Also off topic hear but, UPS is hiring pilots 40 to start and hearing might be headed up to 150! Also maybe up to 20 to 25 more 747's getting added to the fleet!
I will give you a shout here in a day or two if your gonna be around.

Pretty sure I paid enough in shipping to cover the cost of the new 74's. I suppose if you really needed me, I could fly one of those 747F's around for ya.
