A lot of time and $ money went into this but too busey in my opinion, but if YOU like it that is all that matters.

good talent for sure! I would have done the bird on the red without the black background. But i like subtle.

Yes in 1979.... no in 2009.... I've seen a couple that looked pretty decent but that one is just too *BAM* for my taste. The detail and work look awesome, just not my cup-o-tea.

What can you say, it's just a fact of life you won't please everyone. but, that's what makes us all different.

By the way, the car name "Rokn Red" is based on my love for Rock-n-Roll and car is red, hope I didn't offend you!!!!

I love how the bird looks. I think you shoulda kept the flame theme underhood also instead of switching it to lightning. That way you wouldve had one them instead of a couple. But if you were doing the lightning for you rock n roll theme you shoulda just done that.

Car looks great though.

Lightningn is for Rock n Roll...eventually the painter will continue with lightning in the backgorund of the Phoenix (thus flames). Unfortunately, he had to work on the pillar behind the T-Tops from GM wonderful factory gluing (bubbles under the paint). So, he wanted to get me my car back in time for local fall show.

More to come, and all good ideas. by the way, the flame work looks bling only in the sun as it was meant to look like flame, but subdue otherwise.
