Hey guys,
Well I am doing more work on it now. The VW I was working on is complete and running well, so I can finally devote more attention to my baby.
I am trying to get ideas for my paint scheme, and could use some input.
First, this is a Gold Nugget special. That means something, and it would be too bad to change it. I have already molested this car quite a bit by changing from the 6 to the V8 and then the suspension. Not that I think anyone would "devalue" a car like this because of that, but at the same time, it seems wrong to ditch the vinyl top and gold.
Still, the stock Gold Nugget special look doesn't really do much for me. Here it is before I started working on it at a car show:
To me, it kinda looks "grandma car." The new rims and stance will help a lot, but I would love the extra little push to make it look a little more worthy of a speeding ticket.
Here is one image I keep going back to:

I think this scheme might work well with the vinyl top and gold.
Other then that I am out of ideas. Definitely open to suggestions.
