    Mike,

    Thought I would add my $.02 worth. Red stripes on maroon would look killer. I guess it depends on what tires you are puttin on. White stipe for white letter, red stripe for red lines! Whatever you do, you have to put the stripes on. Vertical stripes are supposed to be slimming? :spank: You have got to do that to make the fat A** on that car look right! :laugh:

    Was this car from PA? If it is the one I'm thinking of it was in Mopar Collectors Guide a year or so ago. Article claimed it is a numbers matching car and I know for a fact that it isn't as the engine curently resides in a different car. He did a beautiful job of bringing it back from the wreck that it was (rebody?) :Do No:

    Mike,
    Go with the red stripes :TU:

    Here's another option. I got a WHITE interior with the car. They also had a code for a red interior(carpet dash headliner ect.) and WHITE seats and door panels. Kinda like my Road Runner if you guys remember that. A two tone Red/White interior with a white stripe would be kinda cool. Plus I already have the seat covers and door panels new in the box!

    The brown one is a '70 and it did come out of a bone yard. But it is not counted for U.S. production as it was an "export" car that was sent to Canada. Somewhere out there is a red '70 Hemi Coronet R/T convertible that hasn't been found as of yet.

    dash and door tops should be body color, with white interior
    stripe should be a darker red, not bright red
    Mag 500's with G70 red lines

    white interior with a white stripe is too much... IMO

    or use my combo in the first three sentences with no stripe

    :Smarty:
