I agree with Sam, lots of lace! That sounds perverted! Dave Miller has the best example of a 70's style paint job on a 64-1/2 Mustang convertible. It is awesome! Hey Dave how about a picture to help musclcar out?! I am getting ready to have a Camaro (play toy) done in the old "panel paint" type paintscheme as seen on the Bardahl Camaros from 1970. Check out a picture of a friends old 68 Camaro Pro Stocker that he raced from 68-72. It was white with blue panels with orange metallic lace over the blue. This picture does not do the car justice. Love the old school paint jobs. Also check out some of the older 1001 Custom and Rod Ideas magazines from 70-72 for more paint scheme ideas............RatPack......................

Hmmmm........ 70's paint/graphics, a result of 'intentional chemical ingestion'?

Back in the early 70's I did a 73 Challenger hood in multi colors with a little lace, and op art lines. Even threw some cobwebs on it. The owner, who always wore a Billy Jack hat, came in pretty smoked. He just sat and stared at it. Said he wasn't even gonna put it on the car. Was gonna take it home and hang it on the wall. After a couple of bags of oreos, and garlic dip, he decided it needed to go back on the car.
I agree with Sam. Think it's time for some 60's graphics.

Can you picture Frank and Calebs car with black or even green lace like Darrens old paint was! Groovy baby. That would be bad a$$. That would be a boss paint scheme. How do you like those sayings Schonye? Bring back some memories. Ya Marlin, Were still smokin the stuff!

Troy, That is an excellent picture. The 60-70's paint schemes are hard to beat. Pro Stock all the way down to stock eliminator. The drags used to be one big car show for that stuff. I believe if done right......a car like that would steel any show. No cookie cutter paint jobs here. Maybe I should let Frank Arone loose on my white stripes!
