No Dave they're all just running conversations... all connected in some way or another.

Okay - Matt - It was I that was slow on the uptake -- now I understand your "passing" comment. It's been years and years... like High School....

Okay -- NO FLAMES OF ANY KIND - Large or small - ghost or Orange X 60'.... just plain old Lava Grey.

That rig is sure going to look classy! Solid colors is how real racing teams do it Risi Competizione has all of their haulers in solid red, with a logo splashed on it here & there. Avoiding flashy painted graphics now gives you some freedom to throw a vinyl graphic on there if you ever feel compelled.

How about That has a nice ring to it?


Originally I thought about and asked them if they could do Ferrari Rosso Corsa Red - to match my '32 Ford... but then thought better of that color. I get enough tickets without announcing my presence 2 miles in advance.

So normally I wouldn't really ask for anyones opinion --- but I'm trying to make this a little "fun" and include you guys - because it's all good conversation!


I just realized that the "rig" will be "similar" in color to the Mustang stripes --- so am thinking of maybe doing YELLOW awnings?? That would be a cute play on the colors and is light enough to reflect sunlight etc... and might make it kind of fun color combo at track events.


???????

Dude! Get in touch with your feminine side!

Maybe "FUN" would have been a better choice on my part.....

Having an awning match your car will be awesome until you decide to sell the car for something else that is NOT yellow. Just get everything Lava Gray Colored. the awning companies have a really nice dark gray.

Just make the hauler look timeless. No Gimmicks, No Crap that looks dated in 10 years. Kind of like blue jeans and a T-shirt or a tuxedo. They never go out of style.

Don't make you truck look like a really nice set of Big Block Chevy Valve Covers that everybody had on their hot rod rod 20 years ago and now look like they are 20 years one when they are brand new
