I suggest you try photoshop or your own imagination. :lol:

But more seriously, are you looking to see what that particular combination looks like so you could paint your own challenger the same? Or just researching?

I am with Dave on that one. If it was 1970 and I could order my Challenger, I would order it just like your color combo. :thumbsup: Of course the top would have to be able to fold down. :)

Mmm. Lets see. I have an hour to spare after a hard days work. But how shall I use it?

Shall I;

a) Do a little work on my own car in order to bring the day I can get to drive it a little closer?

b) Spend some time with the wife. Make her happy. Maybe get a little romantic?

c) Put my feet up, pour myself a small 12 year malt and watch that new episode of my favorite TV show?

d) Answer some technical questions for people struggling with their cars?

or
e) Spend an hour searching my pc and the internet for images of blue challengers with different stripes so some bloke with a perfectly beautiful and working example of the best looking muscle car ever made can fanny about over what colour stripe would go better with his shoes. :roll:

Mmmm. You wouldn't believe the difficult choices I have to make every day like that. :lol:

Get a grip! :P

Dave, how about spending some quality time with the wife under the car while sipping the 12 year old malt. And having a notebook 'puter next to you for researching those pesky problems :s017:
I actually do spend quality time with my wife around cars/trucks :wink2:

Please... :roll:

So I want my car to look just like it came from the factory. My buddy had a f8 4 gear Bee with b5 interior. I prodded him constantly to restore it back to factory specs. I won't apologize for my style.

If it's so hard for some of you to comprehend, please delete my thread so as I'm not bothering you folks with such "outlandish" requests.

Everyone has their own style. And there's all types on this message board. Some more vocal than others. :D

Lighten up buddy. No reall offence intended. It's just my style to poke fun. British dry sense of humor and all that.

No good being a "sensitive" person around me. :s022: But it is just banter. :wink:

I don't get it...did he delete all his original posts? I even tried clicking on the flashing icon he left...

Being from Oz, we also inherit the British sense of humour, but maybe i just arrived too late for this particular charade.

Basically he has a really nice blue Challenger with white top and black side stripe.

He wanted people to post photos of blue Challengers with black tops and black stripes. So he could see what it looked like and make up his mind about changing the colour on his.

That was OK but when no photos were posted he made a sarcastic comment about the board. I responded with (what I thought was) a light hearted sarcastic comment.

He got miffed and left the building. Took the bat and ball home with him. :(

My fault.
I am good at upsetting people. Got a degree in it. :lol:

Oh I see! Took the bat and ball, fence, umpire AND his posts as well!!! A much easier way would be like this (see my pics below). Take a good side or semi- three quarter picture of the car and use Photoshop or in my case, Paint shop Pro and just use the Fill [colour] feature. The program will automatically find the defining borders and fill the colour up to them. or use the brush or marker tool and do it manually.

My Green Challenger has a yukky tan vinyl top (at least its new) and i wanted to see how it would look in black. Changes the whole character of the car. I even took the vinyl top off.
