Arrow '49 Olds "Green Project"

Just a little tease of a project a guy some in the industry may have heard of has been working on for a future TV spot. The gentleman's name is Rob Ida and this '49 Olds is "Going Green"...a fellow Spies Hecker Rep of mine Howie Friedman sprayed this baby in Permahyde Waterborne...a BMW green color...the car will run a '70 Rocket 350 motor on propane(not quite steroids but...) as the project progresses and I get more pics and details I will be sure to post. You will be able to see the completed car at the Northeast Auto Body Trade Show coming next month at the Meadowlands in NJ!

Here are some additional pics!

This guy Rob Ida is pretty close with Chip Foose. He even makes all his own wheels and one off stuff like that. You can see a set of wheels on the Olds. I'll continue posting more info as I get it.

Not a big fan of the rubber band tires but other than that it looks great. Got to be dedicated to shoot it that color.
