Need help finding OLD picture of members car

Posted By: SOCOMike On: 08-20-2009 @ 15:14:41         Reply | Edit
A few years ago (3-5) there was a member that had a LS1 trans am that was white and had a custom striped paint job. The stripes were black went down the ram air and onto the front bumper into a point. I believe he also had the top of the wing painted black as well. Im pretty sure he was friends with the guy that had the 70s formula.
Pictures of this car would be great because im getting ready to do a paintjob and want to base it around the idea he was working with. Thanks alot!

i do like it but im trying to imagine it on my car in satin black. My car as it sits right now has all the inlay/overlays in black and blackbird stripes on the hood. Also the factory Speedline rims are painted gloss black with a polished lip.

Sticking around for more picture!

He based his paintjob on the yellow one, but wanted to leave the white in the center (at least he did leave it, but I believe it was intentionally different).

damn that yellow car is bad ass...i like it with the middle filled in better.

What does everyone think of this done in satin black on a red car?

I also have a set of tt2's that im going to have the spokes PC'ed much like the ones on the yellow car.

i know we have some photoshop gurus out there. What would it take for one of you to take the yellow car and make it red? I think flat black stripes with a silver pin stripe around it would look good.

Htill have 1 month before a spot in the paint booth opens up.
