Picked it up!

[nfrntau]

Hey Y'all,
I picked it up from Larry today and brought it home, YAY!!!. He did a great job with it and I am very happy.
It feels really good to have my GT/CS in the garage again. Now starts the really fun part.
I don't have many photos to share but here are a few. I was really fortunate and had perfect weather the whole ay home.

Rob,
I have to give credit for the stripes idea to David Athens. I have liked the look of his car since I first bought mine and decided to restore it. The idea kind of morphed to the present version over the last two years.
For the dimensions, I used the proportions for the Shelby Lemans stripes as a start and applied that to my version. Then Arlie and I used tape and masking paper on his car. When my wife said "that's it, go with that" (and we agreed) we stopped and took measurements. If you pm me your email I will send you the layout.
Cheers

The stripes sorta remind me of the Super Snake:
