Re: my 67 Z racecar finally saw light of day today
hey mockingbird....my dad used to sing that song all the time to my mom and us kids when we were growing up...That's the first thing I thought of when I heard the car's racing name...I always wanted to do a lace paintjob on a car...I fooled around with it when I worked in a body shop back in my high school days...I'm not sure how to do it...I'd have to practice up first......
I'm just not sure I want to put lace on this car!!! But maybe!! I had a 69 Z that had a cobweb type paint on the white stripes...it looked pretty cool... ..Anyone got a any pics of a lace type paint scheme that's not too far over the top??

Re: my 67 Z racecar finally saw light of day today
Thanks Doggg...I believe my car had a painted white part similar to the super hugger photo...I still dont know about the lace??? All these cars are rather over the top for me..
One good thing is I can always add it once it is painted...but,thats probably a ways off yet..although the body is vertually dent and rust free, except where all the lacquer paint is peeling off the car, but thats just very minor surface rust..the only dent I could even find was in the left front fender above the sticker in an earlier photo...it ia the size of a quarter...the quarter lips have been massaged?? though..that may be an issue... Also, I was under the impression that the service replacement door sills don't have the little rivets holding the fisher emblem?? and that they are not available for years...correct me if I am wrong...I am certainly no expert on these cars..I appreciate any input if i'm not correct on the facts.. Heres some more pics... I hope you can see the metalflake...its everywhere...even un the engine compartment!!! Thanks again!!
