    Alright my brother-in-law and I are currently restoring a chev.
    Some details:
    -rebuilt 350 engine from an old 75' Chevy blue, polished and black colors
    -raised 7' in back and 5' in front
    -2 year old white paintjob, shop that did it was horrible, so now I'm redoing a number of panels.
    -custom interior, black, gray and dark grey metallic with polished and chrome accents.
    -Chrome pushbar and frontbumper
    -gloss black grille
    -slotted taillight covers (painted to match)
    -wrangler tires with white powdercoated rims
    -pop lock doors, door panels flushed out
    -hood cowl
    -Custom under frame, interiot and behind grille blue light system
    So as you can see my colors are monochromatic (black, grey and white) with chevy blue.

    Now here is where I need your opinion.

    I'm an airbrush artist and I really want to do SOMETHING for the truck, but I want to keep it classy and clean looking. What would you do.

    I had actually thought about flames, but my bro in law isn't liking that idea. I was just going to do silver ghost flames on the white, and then perhaps a silver bowtie on eith side of the truck just behind the rear wheel wells. This is just my intial idea.

    What would you do?

    I like your idea of ghosted flames. If your brother-in-law don't, move to Sacramento, I have a 64 panel that is a blank canvas...
