you can buy 1/4 inch pinstripe in all sorts of colors including red for cheap at the local parts huts or on line. I buy black all the time
Thanks. I could have spent the money but it's just a driver so it don't have to be perfect lol.
Now I'm working on a scheme for the hood LOL. The center will stay the same and the outside ( just hood not top of the fenders)and the front will be red.

Looks pretty good for a backyard job. I'm interested to see how the hood comes out.

Why did you remove the hood pictures? Was genuinely curious how it would look.
pics back now that i got better ones to show how i fixed my mess lol so this is what it looked like.

I thought that red didn't look that bad, but maybe its just me. Seemed to match your tail stripe.
ok hood is fixed and it matches much better than i thought it would for being paint that my buddy just had dragging around from an old project from like 5 years ago lol. pinstripe on the tail stripe is pretty much done and i just gotta tidy it up a bit. I got rid of the pin stripe on the side and clay barred the whole car so while Its far from perfect and I only have a few hours and like 20 bucks wrapped up in it. I am happy with it and that's all that matters.
i think the stripe goes to far forward at the bottom ( from the marker light down) and the roll pan thing under the bumper is not lined up perfect. i did not have that pan with me when i did the quarters and think that the bottom of the quarters ended up in a little farther than they should have causing the pan to stick out a little on each side. it was the only piece of metal behind the doors i did not replace and it was rough and needed fill. so i will get a new one and cut it right in the center (behind the license plate) and then line it up and weld it back together. you will never seethe cut and repair ( to narrow the pan) because it will be behind the plate

That looks pretty damn good for only having $20 in it. Much better without the tail stripe/pinstripe overlap.
