so here's the one that I helped my buddy do for an old friend. The owner has had this car since the 70's, he is THE guy that was in charge of turning a regular bug into a GTV at econo motors. He is very humble, and now works as an Infiniti mechanic

anyways, ultra maroon and it's many shades in the light and dark. I personally love the color and it's various shades

I think I read everything now....

Are you going to make this a ragtop or keep it as is?

I have no plans to restore this car. If I were to restore it I would keep it the way it is. A 55 hardtop is pretty bad ass all by itself.

First people want the stance you have, then they want widened rear wheels, now they are getting 55's, what's next? :hillbilly: ;)
