I always like the '70's "bubble gum" colors. It's a color I won't have driving up next to me at a stop light.

I've torn between the red which would match my race car and be the same color scheme that I've owned since 1979 and the original Olympic Blue you see hiding under the red.

What say you friends???? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)


I always loved Guards Red, and would've repainted it that color had I kept the old girl.

MY GOD! Long time, no see! FINALLY, somebody gettin' to all the stuff I wanted to do but couldn't make time for.

Yep, what he has was exactly what I bought back in '99, save for a few extras I stuffed in it here and there (stereo, cockpit cover, and such). I'm no metalman by any stretch of the word; Paul owns all the torchy and sparky stuff to make it all doable. But I always wanted to peel that nose off for the longest time.

I gotta come by and give you an update, plus to see all you've accomplished.

I had to weld in a patch piece to the left of the lock cuz the rust was thru to behind the bumper and the metal was too thin to weld to.
