Vintage Racing Scheme/ Hockey Stick Stripes on sides for sure, it looks good, clean, but adds that little touch of look at me!

Car is in to get the hood painted white, and to have the cracked windshield replaced. the stripes will be done later, possibly in vinyl. We have a lot of sponsor decals to put on the car so they come first. Hope to have the car back in a couple of days, I'll take new pics then.

Well I need to have a number of decals done, so they will be done in vinyl. If it all works out I can redo the stripes in paint but right now I am trying to keep momentum going so that the car can make practice runs as soon as possible.

5.14.07:

Hood has been painted, and the rest of the paint has been looked over and a few big scratches were fixed. I will probably pick up the car tomorrow. I'll try to get the new Bogarts on and shoot some pics. The stripes are not done at this time, and will be done at a later date.
