Pics of rack and stripes
« on: April 01, 2010 - 04:43:22 PM »
Howdy all, I installed the rack last saturday and then this morning (instead of starting back in on taxes :horse: ) I masked and painted on some hockey stripes. I couldn't see the sense in buying a set and installing them as I plan (god willing) to strip, bodywork and paint the Cuda next summer.

Here are the pics :2thumbs:

The rack looks pretty good with the round lights.

Like I said, the stripes are just untill I strip the thing, they look good from ten feet and that's all I was goin for.
Not bad for a 15 minute quickie :2thumbs:

It was a tough decision to install the rack, but now that it's on, I'm sold. I am glad I let my son talk me into it

I know, I just simply can't afford a set, now if anyone has a set in driver condition for say, under a c note, I'd be all over it :bigsmile:

'71-'74 mirrors are pretty easy to get under $100.00, dep. on condition.  Don't need NOS or new ones.

Here are a couple of pics with the "440's" outlined and painted, kinda screwed up the zeros, but hey, not bad for less than an hour and a half and a Home Depot .99 rattle can :2thumbs:
