Just getting some ideas.....
I'm thinking about getting it painted some blue color, what is a cool shade you think? Also, I want to get the black vinyl top, black stripes on the hood, and the rear, well I've seen some with the stripes on the trunk lid and rear spoiler, I'm thinking about no stripes back there but making the rear spoiler black. What do y'all think? THX!

Hello Mat, welcome to the site. Totally awesome here, enjoy. Just to give you advice, putting a chebby engine in a Oldsmobile is a sin for alot of guys on this site. Be prepared for some flack. Anyways nice project, what is the white car under the tarp?
