Thanks guy's.
We're a week away and I can't wait any longer. It's been a lone time coming.

I think I've come up with a color that will look good. I'm going to paint it the same color as this.......What do you all think?

I like the color, in fact I totally forgot about a 70 Nova back in my home town that was painted a very simliar color and had Centerline wheels. Very sharp looking car.

I say go with that color and a thin black pin stripe or the factory SS decal would look good in black. Didn't the Nova's have a similar SS decal that resembled the Yenko decal? That's the one I'm talking about.

Also you didn't think you were going to get away with the fact that you, POSTED A PICTURE OF A CAMARO BEFORE A NOVA!

Yeah He finally saw the light......

When is the maiden trip, Friday or Saturday?

Flat black racing stripes would look cool on that color.

Yeah I had some good teachers to impress... :smt002

The more I look at it, the "SS" should be maybe silver and the height of the rear portion should be a little
smaller. I was just trying to let you see what my thoughts were, so scale was not important.

Nice photoshop, but I think I would cut out the black stripe so the "SS" would be in the gray paint underneath. I wanted to paint my car the same color originally, I just didn't have the money to make it look that good in a dark color. Should be sweet!
I am not really sure what the question is, but I am pretty sure the answer is Big Block.

Yep, the forcast is rain for the next 8 days. It's looking like it will be next week. :cry:

But I could happen. Here are 4 tracks within an hour I four different directions. It might not be raining at all of them.

I'm not to upset about it. We need the rain. My yard had cracks in the ground big enough to fall in.
