I'm going against the grain here....I recommend silver, sandman stripes, quad front, honeycomb wheels ...especially since its going to have a 350, t400

Don't forget sheepskin seat inserts, sheepskin tonneau hardcover and HQ Deville doortrims (with sheepskin bottoms).

Oh, I just noticed the sheepshin tonneau on it... There are some parts of some vehicles that should be left well in the past....

This is so tempting....no I'm not taking the piss....some ideas from the 70's are so far out(pardon the pun) they were awesome.

And look at that, no tarp hooks

Dick, forgetting the car they are on for a moment....

Thanks Byron, I saw that one on e-bay, I'm afraid that I find the twin headlight fronts on HQs particularly the Statesman front, quite ugly. The single headlight front is beautiful in it's simplicity

I'm liking Taily's suggestion more and more, maybe with GTS stripes like this

Just like the hq ute that was often on Packed to the Rafters.

I agree, hence my original suggestion of Orchid as one good colour. I just put the silver ute up there as it looks very similar to the Ewe't without all the ornamentation on it.
