Default 1971 Firebird Project opinion...need help!!

I am doing a 1971 Firebird that is going in the "pro touring" direction and I need opinions on an idea I have been kicking around. I love the GTO Judge and think it would be cool to do my Firebird in a Judge related theme....such as "The Jury"....???...."The Verdict"....???....with a nice red or orange paint scheme with a "Judge" like stripe. It would be the Firebirds version of the "Judge". Does this sound like a winner or a weiner???

I think that would or could be cool! But I would have some renderings done to see how the colors and mods you want to do would look before you start on it from a direction point of view!

If subtly done it has great potential IMO. Investing in renderings would be money well spent. Just don't be held in contempt of court.

Thanks for the feedback! Any suggestions on who I could get to do the rendering? Ihave never had a rendering done....are they very costly?

Try Ben Hermance, he does a lot of firebird/trans am renderings. Outstanding work and a good price.

I remember my neighbor's 69 Judge had "HANGMAN" on his license plate.

Lets see some pictures.
