I like number 3. I like the 10 spoke wheels either way but the darker charcoal makes it look meaner.

#1 is my favorite. The ten spokes on the lighter color looks elegant, yet says I mean business.

I llike both 3 and 4 but I picked #3 ftw. That Malibu would actually look bada$$ with any of those color/wheel combos.

Carter's renderings are awesome. Actually thought it was just a photoshop of a regular picture. Stepping it up a notch.

I voted #2 - Silver with the 5-spokes.

Any/all are awesome looking though.

I went with #4 for you Jody. Personally I like #3. I say 4 only because I know you are wanting it to have an old school look - minus the motor that is!!

Either way it is going to be bad ass!!

I gave up on the old school look when I changed colors. I like #3 and #4. It'll likely be finished as #4 and then get the wheels later on, hopefully before Power Tour. Then I can have two looks and change them up when I'm bored!

Jody, since you posted this rendering, I've gotta say, I agree with your buddy (Don I presume?)... For me, I really feel like "silvers and grays" have just been "done to death" in recent years. I REALLY like the parchment color (how often do you see that?) and the large D spokes. I like how the tinted windows really "pop" on that thing as opposed to a big mass of gray, and show the roofline...Overall it has a really "crisp" look and feel to it, whereas the grays just are just "subdued" to the point of being...well, boring. I'm also not big on spoked, road / modular look wheels on the early chevelles...Just my $.02, it will surely be a beauty no matter what you choose to do! - Rob
