Opinions please on crazy graphics scheme

As much as I would like to repaint my 69 Delta, I am coming to the realization that cost will be prohibitive especially since I would have to farm out the work....
I stumbled over these pictures of a 65 Delta creation of a model car on the Internet and got the idea that I could probably save a ton of money by copying/creating these graphics and more or less skip a lot of bodywork since it would have a Nascar look to it. Any and all thoughts would be appreciated.




Slap some graphics on and be done with it.

Personally I am not a fan of it especially on a convertible. Are you planning on having the car wrapped?

No wrap.. body is really cosmetically challenged especially on the passenger side. I know an old school sign painter and will run it by him for cost estimate. Another option could be Vinyl graphics dending on price.

Same here, At first I thought it would look good, but then I saw it was a convertible. Just my opinion, but I don't think it will look good at all.

Pictures are not a Delta. But I always had a thing for Olds Gold and Black. Maybe wide gold stripe where the chrome molding was.
