I am just laughing at the fact that this painter's treachery is about to become public knowledge in a major publication soon. You can't buy revenge any sweeter than that. LOL!!!

Anthony I love the rendering. There is just something about silver '68 Camaros with black SS stripes that I love. Not sure why that is.

Hey if it should ever happen that we have our cars at an event together I want a picture of the two side-by-side. Two Anthony's with their silver and black '68 Camaros. Good luck with the rest of the build my friend.

Tony, I would love to have both cars at an event, that would be too cool!!
FWIW, pics of your car (that I saved to my hard drive) sold me on the SS stripe!

I almost didn't go with that stripe but changed my mind at the last minute. I had purchased the stencel from Classic Industries with the intention of using it but told the guy to leave it off when I saw the car all in silver. Later that night I kept thinking that I might get bored with the car being only one color and regret that I didn't have that stripe on there. I called him the next day and told him to go ahead and put it on. I am so glad I did. I just think silver is one of those colors that "needs something" to break it up. Black and silver...how can you go wrong? Yours appears to be a shade darker than mine. Mine is 'Machine Silver Metallic' off the 2006 Corvette.

Should be sweet Anthony. Can't wait to see it.

What method do you use to strip the nooks and crannies of the door like that? Stripper? Media blast? Tiny little fingers with sandpaper?
