What do you folks think of this:

Haven't been in the mood to get her cleared out.
This is Cobra Colors Snowfrost Pearl with Fiji Blue Pearl.
The gold break line is Pactra pinstriping tape that comes in 8 sizes to a roll.
I ran a test of clear over the stripe on a test body with no ill effects. So after a few more coats of clear to add depth I'll polish it out and continue the build. I have the weekend off and we just got about 4 inches of fresh snow so it would be a good time to build this weekend.

I love the colors!

I like the colors too. Looking good so far, though not sure about the fully-blanked in quarter glass-looks like it needs something there to break up that large surface.

Wheel choice and stance will be critical; something w/some visual weight ie bigger or more solid spokes will look better than something w/thin or delicate spokes.

Thanks guys. Yes Bob, I do struggle with that section myself. I like it as is and thought about some design their but with the car the way it is now I'll probably just leave it. I've got another one I'll be doing differently. I've never liked that 1/4 glass at all.

Here are the wheels I chose for it:

These are the Mr. Model wheels from Brazil. I really like them, but they are expensive.

Those wheels are cool, but they are $$.

I'm not a real fan of the 1/4 glass either. Here are a couple ideas I had:

1969 side glass:

Mimick the hockey stick shape:

the 1969 idea actually would look pretty good, makes the car look similar to an old 1969 Mustang.

Thanks Bob. Those Ideas are excellent! I'll have to incorporate that into my next one. Apparently I had no foresight the day I worked on it.

Nice color choices. Those PE rims look good.
