Nice job on the hood. Will it be all white, or do you have another color you'll be pairing with it?

im lost on colors im debating orange and cream or orange and red

Cream body with orange accents (moulding strip, wheels, perhaps the fenders,) would be very sharp. Model Master Light Ivory is a nice cream color that looks good on 1930s cars.

i tried polly s cream and it looked odd so i went with GMs "generic appliance white" which looks like a off white cream, it was hard to get a shot they all came out white
