![]() James, I only yell at you when you are going to do something terrible to Scruffy ![]() Tyson, stay off the sauce, it is clouding your judgement. |

I'd go for the pyramid/prism -- not the crazed scream....

Totally sober, and still thinking about my black car with a Dark Side of the Moon livery.
Am I crazy? (no pun intended)

OF course!
But the paint job is not a bad idea.

I am a Pink Floyd fan, just not such a screaming-face-on-the-hood kind of guy. I could see Rob doing it, but not me.
I am considering red houndstooth seats like Curt Egerer's car. I think with the 917-10 thing that would be pretty wild. |

That 917 style would look great. Red, Black and white, it doesnt get any cleaner/bolder than that.

>>>I was poking around looking for 1972 racing livery which had a base color of white and came up with the 917-10. <<<
Hmmm, why hasn't somebody done that before? There're some real possibilities with that livery! I think I'd try to incorporate the same type stripes somehow - maybe even a single stripe down the middle - rather than the Brumos-style. We need a resident photoshop expert for times like these ...

Is this what you mean when you say Brumos style?

One of my previous projects -- back in the 80's when slope was OK.
![]() inspired by the L&M 917.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I was thinking of the stripes on the side like the 73 RSR. However, I do like the idea of one big red stripe like that slant-nose. I would probobly do thinner black stripes.
I have not set the alignment yet, but it looks like about 3 degrees negative I am not sure about the color, it was painted when I got it. It does look like GP white, but it may change with more waxing. |

Thanks Jeremy. That thing is *****in.'
Are you going to add the smaller rubber hood straps to the hood and bumper? I was wondering how they'd look with a clean S Bumper. |

The car looks great Jeremy! Thanks for the tip last night. Next time you'll have to take the covers off it and let me see it for real.
Oh, and landing lights would be awesome! For the Pink Floyd fans, you could buy this jersey to compliment your fresh livery: ![]()
