Now I just have a few more things to do. I'm going to change the wheels, I still have to add all the tags which are red on black, and im even going to add a single or double red stripe across the side just above the wheel well to add accent...like the old buick nationals. I'm also putting small grates into the openings on the side of the hood, also red. I'll get around to doing some things here and there also, but this is basically it!






Also, what it looked like before is still in my sig (time to make a new one!)

 

You need to paint those headlight buckets black!

Oh... Wait a minute...

 

lol they're painted...i guess there's just no good angles of that!

 

hehe I think he was being sarcastic

 

looks awesome.. who painted it?

 

I did all the prep work then brought it to a local body shop called Extreme Design. They did a great job for cheap!

 

I have worked on it a bit more...adding some features. This is how she's looking now. More to do!!

 

Some black cross lace wheels on that car would be... oh well.

Just imagining.

 

the red accents really set it off nicely... looks great!

 

Lmao isnt that usually the first thing that comes out of everyone.

 

Theres nothing like a clean black car

too bad its so hard to keep clean

Looks good though!

 

Looks pretty good. I think the red accents look nice.

 

Nice.....black cars =

 

Thanks guys, for all the compliments. I'm thinking about what im going to do in red for the rear quarter panels...I need to balance it out. Im thinking about doing a bowtie logo in the area behind the windows...and yes, I DEFINITELY need new wheels!

Here's a better picture of those accents in the hood...they're strips of grates sandblasted and painted red.

 

I have always hated that hood...but with the red screens that looks real nice!! Nice and black

 

The red accents look great but I agree that theres too much red in the hood and not enough at the rear of the car. Heres a thought, paint those hood inserts black with a red verticle stripe in the center. This way there wouldn't be soo much red, yet it will accent and follow the lines of the hood and car.

Looks great and good luck!
