Re: My 1959 apache project

Your paint is so beautiful! The short commute to work is nice too.

Maybe I missed it: What dark stripe? You're going to paint the spear a different color? Same tone but darker or different color?

To be honest I'm liking the hell out of it as it is, but of course I'm not paying the freight. Your taste is very nice so I'm sure it'll look great.
