Yeah, that was the last time I saw it. I'm sure he still has it, he was quite proud of it, he actually put me on the spot and wanted me to agree it was better than El Mule...all I could do is smile.

The color is a completely custom blend. Brent and the painter mixed it up the day they shot it and have no idea what it took to get it there. I got that info from Larry C., he asked Brent for me about a year ago. Yep it's a sweet color and awesome car, and man did it sound good!!

FWIW, I shot a fender Electron blue and thought it was pretty close, add enough pearl and I think you would be very close.

Jason at Timeless Kustoms (yes with a K)
is the painter on the car. He is in the process of finishing up the final details on my car. He is in Camarillo California - if you guys want I can ask him what the color is. Jason is also doing a lot of the work on Bren't car at his shop, I saw it and looks almost as good as my car - haha - anyway, let me know if you are interested enough for me to call him.

Tom

Can you tell me something about the Harmonic balancer on that particular motor? It looks like a saw blade to me. Could be an optical delusion. It may be the dipstick numbnuts question of the day but I am willing to "Take one for the team".

That 69 Camaro he did is what ispired the stance and wheels for my 69 Camaro. I really liked his ghost checkered stripes. Most people dont even know they are on that car.

Hey Jim -

The saw blade is for ripping big sheets of 4x8 plywood.
Twin turbos get that blade spinning pretty fast.

Actually, it's the 60-2 tooth pickup for the Electromotive crank trigger ignition.

Here is a shot of my car that is Z06 Electron Blue to compare.
