engineering drawing of my mangosmoothie

i was fiddling around with my photo software program and produced this. (note it was based off the pelican parts 1957 one)

i kind of like how it turned out.

Those smoothies and whitewalls are just sitting on my garage floor waiting to be put on. :)

here is a larger one that shows the redone measurements:

Very tastefully done, Smoothie.
Can you do one in liquid copper? ;)

Mango - that's a pretty cool rendering. It would be a cool addition to a workshop or in the garage over the workbench.

Nice! Terry - I can't keep up with different wheels on your car! I thought you were sport'in polished 2L Fuchs not painted Mahles? You aren't married to Amellia Marcos are you by chance (and trying to keep up with her shoe collection)? I should talk I guess - I had a set of Chrome Mangels (sold them), a set of Pedrini's (sitting in corner) and now 2L Fuchs in process of slowly being polished.

Check this OG color scheme, one of the best I have seen.

Ended..

slightly off-topic, but anyone knows how to do metallic tones in Photoshop?

Thom, your link doesn't work.
Wolfgang, I don't think you can have too many wheels. I have a set of new tires on my repo Fuchs, but I'm still looking for another set of wheels. I have my eye on a set of Minilite style wheels for my IM.

Pedro...

This is the easiest procedure I've found for metallics in Photoshop:

That green Speedy belongs to a guy named Scott and shows up frequently at the weekly Cars & Coffee meet here in my neck of the woods (SoCal).
