My GC is a long term project but i like to gather parts along the way and was wondering what you guys think about putting a hockey stripe 383 on it?It does have a flat hood but i have already aquired a cuda hood for it.It is a numbers car but i dont mind putting cuda stuff on it and am keeping the orginal stuff.It will be painted the original color of dark green metalic.So if i do use a hockey stripe,what color should i use also?
thanks

What color is your interior?  If it's white, I'd go with a white stripe.  If its black, go with a black stripe.

I always thought the orange striped orange car and the pink on pink stripe looked cool and you had to take a second look

What about pink???? :puke:


sorry wrong thread

I don't think a black strip would look bad but one thing you may not want to do is put all those 'CUDA
things on and also leave  the Grand Coupe stuff too

starts to look alittle busy ::)

 :dontknow:   That can't be true??  I was under the presumption that black, white and red were available . . . . but hey I was only six at that time and could be mistaken!   :ack:   :ack:   :grinyes:   :grinno:   :grinyes:   :grinno:

Unless you are going to go all the way with the 'cudaization of your car, I would say no. 'cudas (ones currently on the road) outnumber grand coupes by a large number. I'd sooner have the less common vehicle. I wouldn't put a Daytona wing on a normal Charger.
