Candy Black and Candy Fuscia....Clear and final pictures tomorrow....

Moved to the Lounge.

Not a Bonneville, nor is it YOUR other ride.

neat! can't wait to see this :D

Are you pulling the lights and such?
Also, trust me on this, pull the grille off the body panel it screws to. At the auction, we saw a lot of CVs of that generation that started herpes under there and spread out from underneath.

Can't wait to see the results.

I will be waiting

its funny you say that lol we're having a hell of a time gettin the bumpers, the grill, and the lights off of this car...we got the tails off...but everything else is a pain hahaha oooohh well we'll figure it out

but thanx alot for the tip :-)

Tell him to plug a phone charger into an empty pringles can and pull over to the side of the freeway and start pointing it at passers by. Get some fun in before you make it too obvious it's not a cop car. :twisted:

Actually, a black plastic insulated coffee cup works better...
One of the rangers at Mom's park used to pull that stunt inside the netrance of the park where they were having a problem with people popping over the top of a blind hill at speed.

Two tone? For some reason black and white comes to mind....

no not even close...we're not gonna be panelling it like cop cars... ;-)
