I would like the wheels better if natural aluminum. Everything can be removed though. If he wanted to do it right he could have done a wrap to make it the correct colour and all, nothing permanently damaged.

Sheldon, don't know if you ever get out to the Island, but the car is only about 4 hours away from you. You might see it around at a local show or something...

I was going to guess Vancouver! First glance I thought here in Barrie until I noticed all the buildings.


Cudajason

you know, I kind of like it!  Very different.  Now does he have any plans to take it out to a track an run it like that or is it all just for show.

Of course I like that one stock too!

Count me as one who thought @Brads70 would like this one.

Throwing a bunch of race car decals on a perfectly restored car makes no sense to me       :crazytalk:  ,  but it`s his car.

:iagree:  Not my style, but to each his own.  :o

Those wheels are just too bright. Pimp my ride.


Cudajason

If that is the case he may need a better decal supplier!!!

Oh wait is that how he is going to get them off???

YO CODE MAN :cheers:, where's the BURNOUT ICON? Gotta have that man  :pokeeye: AFTER ALL this is a MOPAR SITE ISN'T IT?  :bravo:

I am almost always in the "to each his own" camp, but IMO this car looked awesome when Alan had it and now....I'm not feeling it.  Restomod this car.  Please  :stop:

E-bodies look so awesome I dont think they need all the bells and whistles as other cars need to try to get them look awesome.  E-bodies  need few trinkets. I do give the guy props for being different, just do it to some car that isnt gorgeous. 

RUNCHARGER

I' m moving closer to the car Alan. What else are you going to send over here?

:iagree:  Like it much better original!

Looks okay. I've never been a big fan of race decals on street cars, but his gig.

Rear sits too high also. Whats the story on the springs?

anlauto

They are just the factory springs rebuilt and re-arched ....they're going to settle down, unless he's done something else to "jack it up"  :clapping:

Problem with decals is when you remove them you will often discover that the paint underneath them shrunk and you will always be able to see the outline of the removed decals. Buffing will not usually help.
