Okay so you decided on the Porsche green. It should look killer when it is done. I saw four vert decklids this past weekend at the Bug Jam for $350. Oh well.

I've seen your buggy on many pics and it looks great, so the 66 will be something awesome too. I'm gonna follow this tread.
good luck with it.

I would think to be different you need to paint it RED, no one does that any more...
Decromed 66 with red paint and supercool wheels/rubber... you can't go wrong!

OK Ok Ok..... if you paint it red its going too be another 80's cal looker.... and more importantly people will conpare this to my lee leighton replica......
I think red is better on an upright headlight model.
