Wow that is amazing. I bet with enough time you could top it. By the way, did you end up selling the car?

That would look sick on a black T/A though if you toned it down slightly and only had it on the hood and flowing slightly onto the front quarterpanels. I saw a first gen camaro convertible on Overhaulin that they painted black and had a skull in ghosted flame just like that and it looked incredible. Not too flashy with just the right amount of badass...ness.

it'd be 100% better if he nixed the phoenix and cut the flames off mid-way.. instead of extending all the way back. but, still, frickin awesome.

Vinyl

Saw on the *power block* on spike tv i think it was, they can make form fitted vinyl that has cga designs. just email it to them, they could probably make one up for you, and if you didnt like it, just peel away. Has to be cheaper than all the work to do that.

I guess you've gotta be careful with that.

I think think that pheonix would look sweet on a Firebird. But all that stuff on the side is a bit too much.

car is incredable.. now the thing to remeber this is a show car not a daily driver. it was done for SEMA by killerpaint mike lavallee. so im sure it was some heavy dollars. but it does have areas that inspire me to do some simular work. its on my to try list along with the pin up girls
