This car was at last weekends car show . Disregard the fact that it's a streetrod, what do you think of the color? It looks to me like a battleship gray. Unusual but different, Ole Charlie couldn't make his mind up about a color for his 41,maybe he should consider this color...grin BTW..I'd love to own this car. ![[Linked Image from inlinethumb48.webshots.com]](http://inlinethumb48.webshots.com/48943/2857860930029539674S600x600Q85.jpg)

"Disregard the fact that it's a streetrod" Did you miss that part? I know you love 37 coupes !!! I can see why you might not like the color.

I was only wrong one time in my life so far. But that time I was right, and only thought I was wrong....ED

I'd be surprised if you could "go" faster than 5 mph on and off the trailer...Air you say...?

Disregarding the fact that both cars are street rods -as asked by the poster for us to do- I can say that I think the colors and paint jobs are pretty cool (to borrow a teenage term) and nicely done. It appears that the second one is two-toned. Even cooler paint job. Often these cars don't show very well in the lighter colors: at least it seems that way to me. Accordingly, it must have taken an adventurous soul to paint them the colors they are. I admire the painter's art (preparation and skill). Charlie

Charlie  Charlie...I guess that answers the question you raised awhile back "what color should I paint my 41' convertible???"...This problem is now apparently solved. New problem....Has Charlie flipped??? and decided to join the hot rod crowd ???? If so why not paint it with that paint that changes colors when you walk around it, like a abalone in the sun???? That would be "COOL"....ED BTW....Then you could break out your old polyester suit with the bell bottom pants that was the style in your neck of the woods in the 1960's...COOL MAN COOL
