Thanks guys. Richard, thanks for saving me lol. Can’t figure out why all the pics went to my profile instead of the thread but I will try to figure it out. I have a couple more to post. The orange used is good old Hemi orange. I like it better than the red as well.

Is the car getting painted up north or down here?
I'd call it Chevy orange!!!

Thanks Gordon and Richard. Car is being painted in WV. Gordon and David Howard are the reasons I found these guys. They painted Gordon’s Cobra as well as a few other cars on the forum. As for the Athens reference, love the Bulldog black and red, however I am an Alabama grad stuck in enemy territory and I just didn’t think Crimson and white would look good. Will post some more pics as I get them. Have to finish the chassis up as body chassis mating is only a couple weeks away.
