    if i build it and more then one guys tells me i am nuts them i know i am on the right track .for paint i like solid colors ... less is more... black and red have been my colors more so black .it more of in you face deal with as being a body man and painter black will not lie .i never spent money on chrome any thing. i did the painted bumpers back in the 80s as for the engine and fab work headers and EX i did every thing myself so the cars have ways been like a rolling business card .i think that were i push it was the engines . i drive them very little so fuel is not a big deal so i pump them up and run race engine on the street .i build stuff you can beat on with a hammer so no wimpy drive line parts as for cookie cutter cars i really do not care much for them. i do have a gto but i would say every one knows thats mccarthys gto or 50 chevy there hard to get mix up with the normal stuff . i have never been normal. that is ok
