PURPLE
RED ok, :whacked: Purple hay Jim what’s up with that :D
How do I go about get in the old Geezers club?
Some of the guys say I should leave it as is
Purple is a very popular color for hotrods. Traditional flames stand out good on a grape purple car. My '51 will be a medium dark grape purple.
A buddy of mine had a purple 23T looked sharp with all the 70s graphics
I like it the way it is too. That shiny stuff just makes you mad the first time you get careless and chip it with something. (Like damn jack handle but I uhhh wouldn't uhhh know....):CRY:
Me buy a hot pink car? maby when I become color blind to the color red. I like purple hotrods, Hot pink could look cool if it was done to the right car. Generally, pinks do look nice on late 50's cars when done a 2 tone pink and white combo.Quote:

To be a senior Geezer club member ya gotta send all the other club memberz $5,000.00 CASH (no checks) and then do the pledgin' thang and learn the complicated "secret handshake" from Techinspetcror1.....PLUS paintin' yer ride a base HOT PINKcolour under the 2nd coat of grey primer...
Pink looks good on a female-driven race car Matt. That's all I can think of.
Well I guess I’ll pass on the old geesier thing but the truth be known a good frend of mine has a 1953 Willy’s that is as close to hot pink as I would like to get

How about plaid? when was the last time someone saw a plaid car? or, since you already have a blac basecoat, how about high-metallic black? looks good on everything:)
Please note: this is a good example of "bullsh*$$*ng". Or, if its true, I never plan to become a geezer club member!:whacked: :whacked: :whacked:Quote:

Hey you know a paint job I haven't seen in a while.....
Doily.(sp)
You know you old guys its a paint job where you lay a doily as a pttern and clear over it or something like that. Little help please I can't find any pics at the moment. It used to be so cool painted on vans and the like....
Andy
That was done by spraying a color over a "lace" doily, like the side of this body I bought many years ago.
yep I'll agree purple wouldn't be to bad:p :D :D
