I have always like the original Shelby stripes, but how about this version?

Randal, can you put up the pic like in your avatar only regular sized?

I think the position and width of you air vents are what I'm after (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)


JP, I'm gonna keep my engine lid "as-is" except for the stripes.

Good! New paint will make you enjoy your car even more.

Oh, that... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)


Not quite full track car, yet.

I drive around on the back roads and here and there in town.

If ( when (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) ) race seats and full cage are in, I may draw the line.

I like that a lot and so does my wife. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

The pinstripe border is something I've always liked.

Nice touch up on the mock-up, BTW

Keep it coming (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif)

$3050 out the door, all inclusive. i take it apart. antenna and lower sail panel trim delete, color match a smooth top that i have. L96D(silver metalic) 2-stage. i thought about a road trip via los poncho's, fly home-fly down, drive back. roughly the same ammount after everything is totaled up and no worries about a long drive home with the new paint. i've never had a qoute under $5500 local, and that's with me taking it apart. it's nice when you can look at the painters work first hand. i don't care about a photo album full of pictures. he'll assure me of a completion date.

I like the one wide stripe with the pin stripe idea. I dont have a good front view but this gives you the idea (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif)

I'm back.

I found a little bb sized rust bubble right in front of the passenger side door on the fender.

I picked at it and opened it up and now it's the size of a silver dollar (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

( thanks for the wide stripe shot, BTW. )

Welded it up (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif)
I also welded the wiper spray nozzle holes shut, too.
