Floors are in perfect shape

Trunk has a little rust, but nothing not manageable.

Hood is perfect.

Man, olive drab green with some black stripes all in a matte finish would look really cool. Maybe work in a white star or your father's company's insignia on the tail panel? There's a lot of ways to make this car look great and convey the proper appreciation. Great idea.

That's it!.. been doing some research. Olive Drab(Huey or Chinook style) with U.S. Vehicle markings. My pops dog tag #'s. Rich has been pumping out ideas... some canvas for door panels, army belt straps. flight suit/helmet. It ought to be a cool base to work off.

Yeah, I'm still sticking by this two year old comment.

Though, your choices in green are damn nice as well. Good luck!

So I've been diligently getting ready to jump into this build.
Been working on the design - renderings and really excited about it.
The military/tribute theme is going to be subtle, yet have that stealth look. Holding out on them till their just right. its gonna be badass!

right now mainly prepping to get some epoxy coat primer on.. and sort out the little dings. Undercoating Is done. Still need some mods on the roll bar and front engine compartment bracing.

"Joan" the red one, has been taking up my time, since I've been finishing up the electrical, and smaller details on the LS6 that I recently installed.
