Top one gets my vote as well, shows just how sexy she really is!!  The other 2 are just, ordinary!  As if our votes mean anything!!  :roll:  It has been fun though, I do have to admit....thanks for the entertainment Charles Darlin!  Now we get to wait for what he's really going to do.....is it?.....could it be?....yup...the first one is "c-l-e-a-r-l-y the winner!  Thin Jon will notice that last one?  It was just the perfect word and not intended as a teethgrinder-there-it-is-again word!  :-D

Lynda,, of course  your votes do mean something,,, If by chance some or  many of you vote for the one I have chosen,,, then in deed you would have exhibited class, style and good taste and an eye for quality and detail.

Oh ,, am I full of myself again !!!

Yes,, we all need some fun in this off season... thanks to all of you on here for letting me share my build and paint diary with you,,, I hope you have and will continue to enjoy.

Charles....like the top one better, has more defined lines that breaks up the black for a great color mix on the front end, plus the scallops add to the identity of the car  :cheers:  Keep up the good work!  I've been following the blog and the car looks great!  Mine is down for an engine change and some minor changes to the car....tonight it is almost ZERO DEGREES here in KC, so gives us time to strip the car down after running over 1,700 miles on the street after B'Ville, testing engine components (poor boy dyno) and a new engine combo that will be alot more competitive.  I've got my chassis where I want it, now onto an engine with power to chase the record.  Well, back to work......Bill

 :-D  Top one for me.  It shows the "basic black' better.  Clearly the one to go with!   Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours Charles!  C U on the Salt!     Crow.

Charles,  I like the bottom one.  It clearly shows the grill openings keeping the Stude look.  I suggest that you go with the entire air dam in the red color.  My eye says that (as shown) the black accents on the air dam look like a "K-mart" stick-on after- thought.

Of course this comes from someone that is building a car with the original production scratch and dent paint still in place. 

I loved seeing the Vicky in person at the track.  To those that have only seen the Vicky in photos, I can vouch that the car is even nicer in person.  I look forward to seeing the Stude.    Art

Bottom one for me -- and hide the logos, numbers and such on the windows for a clean appearance.

Stan,,, your Roadster looks GREAT,,, and I see you have hidden your very minimal numbers and letters quite well.

I gather that you don't like them on a car ?   Seems to me Race Cars  have that stuff ?

The Rules specify  a minimum size if I am correct ?

I will look again,,,  thanks for the pic of your Roadster,,,, Cool (and fast car) for sure...

The family gave this careful consideration.  I heard the term "batmobile."  Rose and I like the top version.  The black is not overstated.  Our daughter Gretchen likes the bottom version.  She says it is "gangsta."  This will be a nice car.
