paint scheme
I am interested in seeing some C4 photos with 2 tone paint jobs. My paint on the top of the car is going south. The sides are very good. I can't say I ever say one with the top side only painted. Any links or suggestions...thanks
Took the vette to the track and it feel on its face. Top speed in the 1/4 was about 86mph. Checked all major items and tuned it up. It still was a dog. Finally (dah) checked the timing. It was so far retarted it was ridiculous. Set the timing and it was like a new car. Hit the gas now and hold on. It smokes the tires and its gone. Went back to the track and ran steady 13s. I think thats pretty good for a 21 year old car with over 100,000 miles. Just thought I would share

If you want a good 2 color paint scheme get the top one color and the bottom a different shade of the top color.

Tone-on-tone looks good. Take a look at the 1978 Silver Anniversary Vette for a tasteful two tone.
