You sure know how to make a beauty Bluesmobile, SCMODS. Gorgeous car, man. Now you gotta treat those finicky neighbours to a nice smoky burnout session lol. ;D I agree with DaD ... the vids are great but some more pics would be sweet, too. Awesome job!!

Thanks guys. I'll get some pics today. I clocked 160 trouble free miles on her yesterday. $75.00 to fill her up was a kick in the pants though.

Pic 4. Last one. It was a brutal 48 hours of dedication, but the payoff was driving her around last night and today blasting Elmore James tunes.

Thanks fellas! And Zac, I used some gold I have had for years in a pint (brush paint). It's enamel made by Rust-oleum called American Accents. It's satin metallic gold and it is used for furniture and decorations. I got it at Lowes for a few bucks. I have done 4 cars with that stuff and loved the outcome. Highly recommend it! Thanks again for the star idea! I ended up using a sheet of poster board and tracing a bowl from the cabinet. Added some points and sprayed it. Best I could come up with in the kitchen lol.

Don't know what exactly to use here but I have used foam pipe insulation in the past. It has worked out nicely. I noticed that one of you guys actually found the real rubber bumps for the push bar on ebay.
