Got the 50 painted

Had my 50 98 up for sale with the lime green paint. Was getting a lot of negative feedback on color choice. So I decided to repaint the bottom half light green metallic for an easier sell. here are a few pictures (it's for sale, thread in cars for sale section).

A big improvement. I notice you changed the tailpipes too. They were probably not for everybody. Car looks really nice.

Very nice, good color choice.
Tourquise on top would be really
sweet. For me anyway. I like the striping.

Thanks guys, I love the new color also wish I could keep it. But I have a couple of projects that need my attention (and money).
Tedd sorry not selling the cooler. I might keep it for either my 48 Plymouth or my 41 Pontiac (see what I mean about other projects).
Yes I also removed the Bellflower pipes. Had to put it in a more sellable mode. Paint and pipes weren't for everyone. I lived in Los Angeles when they were popular.

I like it a lot. Wish you were closer and I did not have some big house repairs pending.
