Looks good, How about flat black with a testors lime ice lacquer roof?

Thanks guys for the color input. Today will be chrome removal on all the parts and go looking for a engine.

How about matte metallic silver? And then do all the previously chromie bits in flat black?

The engine is out of the revell kit 4297 the beatnik bandit by Ed Roth.

Tamiya Blue/Green Irid over satin black, sealed with matte.

[baloney]

rustic brown,--think about old leather aviation army jacket-- , and some pin up chic on the bottom fender,white walls, red steel wheels, cream interior

Got started on the engine no plug wires or fuel lines yet.
