That sure is pretty Rick!!!!...........If it was me, I would either use a decal for a name theme,(green hornet, green monster,greenmachine,godzilla, etc.)................................................ if it is a sponser it would have to match the color combo of the car,..................or I would add some flames!! ;D ;D ;D...................I would leave the windscreen yellow. Its kinda a tuff call because of such a nice paint job, remember I am partial to lime metallic green ;D ;D ;D ;D It looks really nice as is..................................Fred

Well hell if'n your gonna get some decals made up, Go with Red "to accent the engine" and Gold "To match the Driver/Windscreen" and kinda go chinese with it, call it GREEN "T"!!! it's already got that vintage flair, and the paint would work perfect for it! or just decal the hell outta the bottom of it with sponcers, and caller done??? I dunno. it's your car, and that was just my opinion...and remember Kiddies, Opinions are like arse-holes, Everyones got one, and most of them stink!

Man that is freakin' nice! I'll side with Paul, sort of... in that the car looks outstanding as is. I'd definitely leave the windshield yellow as it compliments the body really well. But here is where I'll differ, I think decals would definitely make the whole thing pop! Some sponsorship decals like the originals back on the T part of the body would look right in par and maybe something of a name up the side as well just like the old rails had. Don't plaster the sponsors though, you don't want to take too much of that fantastic paint away. Just a couple to keep the eyes wandering over all the details.
Just awesome and thank you for sharing Rick!

Hey Rick.... Decals can be TRICKY ...lol .... But not all models need decals to get the point across.... Looks fine without them ..... Just my 2 cents... Nice job on it

no more than a couple of contingency decals if any. The Green Manalishi (with the two pronged crown) is the first thing that popped into my head when I saw it. Oh Yeah! Beautiful job Rick!

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice paint there Ricky. I don't think I'd muck it up with a bunch of decals, although a few strategically placed ones would be OK. Mooneyes, Clay Smith Pecker, Cragar, period perfect ones....You did it all right though. It looks 100 times better than box art paint job!

Rick
This looks great. Red , yellow, and white decals would work nice with the color you chose. Then clear coat the crap out of it with Tamiya clear coat! BOOM
