    How did you catch 3 different cars in exactly the same spot to take those pictures?

    I like the solid ones too, but have seen some with different colored fenders and they look fine also. But I agree they tend to say resto rod somewhat. With that nice body you can paint it anything and it will turn out sharp.

    Bobby - don't forget - yellow/orange,( i.e., see my AVATAR)

    I've seen many sedans painted like the first one and as long as the colors aren't screamin' different, they do look pretty good.

    Another choice as far as two tone is the main body one color, then the roof and beltline detail another. I intend on doing that raised detail on my car another color soon (and that's another story)

    If you use a black roof cover, the body a second and the fenders/splash shields a third, then it gets confusing (IMHO, anyhow)
