    What do you think?
    « on: July 29, 2006 - 10:39:33 AM »
    I was thinking of this for the Chally it's not stock and has 318 replacement block in it.  Originality is not an issue but I do want the car to be different.

    P.S. it's not my car but a photoshop rendering of my idea.  I also wanted to do possible a T/A or R/T strip without the callouts to break it up a little.

    Let me have it!

    I don't really like all of the black. Just a bit too much for me.A side stripe would be a bit of overkill with the black roof and decklid but if only the hood were black then the stripe would look great.

    How about the black stopping just behind the rear side window & angle down to match the R/T stripe?  heres a quick rendering   Needs a BEE stripe too!

    None of the above do anything for me, I'd just paint the whole thing black and be done.  :naughty:

    I agree that combo would look great but not different

    Thank you for the input I agree black is nice but the body has to be nicer to fully take advantage

    True, has to be perfect if you're after a super driver or show car.

    To tell you the truth, the more I look at your photo-shop the more I like it.
    What about a gun metal as the bottom colour?  :dunno:

    That might be sharp I was thinking of some type of Silver and that would fit!

    Thanks for the input!

    I spent part of the day yesterday stripping exterior trim/bumpers to prep for paint here are some photos.  Took me @4hrs and 6 Sam Adams!

    Thanks it's been a little slow around here at the Davis Garage!  Been picking away at some minor things but have most of it squared away and ready for paint.  I've given up on this summer but look forward to the fall temps.  Sorry for the mess in the garage!  It's tough getting motivated,  but this site gets me going. :burnout:

    I tried to do a little late night sketching. It's 3:46am I can usually do a hell of a lot better than this but you can see enough of what it may look like with a dull/deep grey bottom shade. :2thumbs:


    I'm off to bed now. lol :faint: :sleeping:
