Just wondering if anyone out there has a somewhat creative paint job. The stripes look good, but have really been done to death. Maybe a two tone job, just looking for ideas.

I may have watched one to many overhaulin' episodes, but I gotta be honest, two-tone is now one of my favorite styles of paint, if done properly and with taste. I tend to think that the style of paint you choose should reflect the direction you are going with the car. Original, race, pro-touring, pro-street, or nostalgia-type race (i.e. Smokey Yunick, Trans Am). But, since it is your car, the desicion is completely up to you. I am somewhat of a hypocrite when I say that Z/28 stripes are being way overdone, especially on non-Z/28 and non-pace cars. My pop is still working on his 68 and as it gets closer to paint, we are still trying to think of unique ideas. I have thougt about stripes (ghost, patterns, etc.), two-tone, bumble bee (ghost, patterns), even thought about using flat paints for sectinons of the car. I would say search all over the internet since it can give you some good ideas, but the ultimate desicion is up to you. Hope this helps.

i agree, maybe a little too much overhaulin haha. The two toned paint job they did on the chevelle was my favorite (66 chevelle i think). But yah, i've been trying to look for pictures...but almost all the cars i find have the stripes... i guess camaro owners don't stray too far from the norm =P

They havent seen my hood lately then. Had the bumble bee, but since the car isnt stock and I wanted it to be my own.. I drew out the design for the painters to use.

This is how I plan to paint mine when I get ready. Click the link below

Mike, I like your idea!! My convt. is maroon and I was thinking what to do when it needs new paint and that two tone is nice!
