For those of you not frequenting the other forum here's what Ryan doctored up for my paint scheme idea.
Don't go stealing it before I get to do it in the next 7 years!:D

I'll have black halibrands and the side pipes will be black too.
Still contemplating the racing decals. Three of them already have red/white and black themes. Wonder if you can have a Good Year and Castrol made in black and white.

Did you want me to throw some decals on one side and send you an updated photo?

I usually don't care for white cars, but you have a great paint scheme (no I won't use it). :)
I think it looks really nice and in a sea of red and blue cars it would really stand out. I like your ideas.
Good luck.

I'll probably be different than most but I think the car itself stands out so well that stripes and decals only distract the eye.
That red on the Georgia coupe I think is superb.
White just by itself on this car I think would take away from the presentation and does need something like the stripes to "bring it out"
Any other color I'd do in just the one solid color.

That paint scheme works really well with the white!

Here it is with some decals. Certainly changes it up.

Ryan,

Thanks again. I've always liked the racing decals. Like I said I wonder if they can make the Good Year and Castrol in black and white.
I like the red circle on the gumball too. Tis still evolving!

Thanks,

John

Contact Chris at www.racelinedigital.com and ask if he can print them in the black/red/white scheme. I bet he could. This is where I got all of my race decals.

Kinda curious with the similar lines the coupe has to the etype has anyone painted one British Racing Green? I'm still planning blue and white but can't get the BRG idea out of my head

Mike Jones and CA crum's coupes are a dark green with silver stripes. They look nice. Check on the other site for pic's

Hey Jon, Just take the older stickers to a sign shop and tell them to make up a set in the colors you want.
