So here is today's dreamer project.

Thru a complicated series of events I have a 66 big block hood. A real one, with a real big hole cut in the middle for injector stacks. It's too far gone for any kind of restoration.

It is however, suitable for a total badass pool table light with a couple globes in the blower cutout. See where this is headed?

So if you had to pick a famous race car with a recognizable paint scheme, what would it be? I realize these cars would not have had 66 big block hoods or things sticking out the hood. But think the finished product would be cooler if it evoked racing history.

Looking forward to your responses :cheers:

That's a great idea and a beautiful car, thanks for adding the pic to this thread. If my hood was embellished with a sunoco logo on the driver's side it might be more recognizeable despite being less correct. Plus the logo hasn't evolved and stickers are readily available. Hmmmm....

please keep the suggestions coming
