Well, I lived in Houston for 12 years. That's what I was basing my fears off of. Sometimes I drive to work to North Platte, and don't see any cars at all. It can be desolate on Highway 30. Normally I like to fade into the woodwork, but not if I'm driving a vehicle made of unobtainium. lol.

I don't like modified outside chassis's as much.
Unless they're done over the top like Johnscudashop, Twistedfish, etc.

Leave em be unless you're going to mod the entire car.   :2cents:

I am going to put the '71 Roadrunner side markers on mine, They are recessed through the body with three separate markers. It is something different, and I like the way they look.

I like the way it looks without the side markers, especially Dutch's car. I deleted mine cause I didnt like the cluttered look but its a personal prefrence . :2cents:

I needed new fenders and quarters.  I put the '71 stuff on for the same reason.  The side markers, bezels, and lenses are expensive but it will make the car look so much better.

Convert to 70-71 style. I did, and I like the look so much more. It ain't going to hurt the value on  73, in my opinion unless you want a to do a complete restoration to original.

So, I am guessing no one will like my idea of instead of strobe stripe, side markers down the side? Or phosphoresence vinyl wrap so the whole car glows? lol. Captain Safety here, ya know. One almost needs sunshades on to view Dutch's car! It's a beauty, for shure, and bright!

Just paint the strobe strip with glow in the dark paint . . . That will stick out some!
