All the years I drove mine in Cold Lake during the winter. All I ever did was use 5W30 oil, and leave the heater on full hot.

The Topless Bunny was warmer than a lot of hard tops out there!

I like these colours, but I would have the cream from the lower body line like Kami suggested.

im planning a two tone scheme myself. right now its tripple white. top is ripped, interior is gross, and there is some rust. getting a black top w/white headliner. the body color above the trim is to be black. below the trim a silver or metalic grey. a bit of pinstripe accent and i think it will look sharp. i cant figure out what to tdo with the rims.
so I am all for the two tone. i cant view the pic of the bel air model. would like to see how its laid out.

To cold to drive topless, try driving an MG, when it is 15 degrees out, snowing, and you have the tonneau cover on, heater cranked up, and a snorkel parka on and driving in a snow storm, just so you could see the look on folks faces................ :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

I drove my cabby when it was 30 topless....... Just a sweatshirt on.....

I agree a two tone done properly can and does make a great looking car. However I like things made to look simple. That's why my projcet cat is only going to be one colour.

There were three different color schemes: black/silver, red/black, blue/silver. Here is the blue/silver version:

wow that is a nice two toner. i dont have that kind of body molding so i will have to go to the side trim. i have to concentrate on getting it runnin first though. oh and i drive the jeep with no top and no doors in the cold & motorcycle when it was 36 degs. personally own no vehicles with a hard top. wife has a masda tribute when she wants climate and hair control.
