on the color, i would look in the craft section of Wamalart at the acrylic paint. im not sure about Alabama, but i found a great color for my Oklahoma themed '57 Chevy pickup. i wish i had some pics of it. these are flat, so youll need a nice clearcoat to get them nice and glossy. hope this helps. later



BTW, " Its rollin' baby, its rollin'! "-famous last words of former Alabama coach Mike Price. Boomer Sonner! j/k, i went to the game in Tuscaloosa a few years back, and you guys are some of the nicest fans out there.

Junior -
Have a look at any one of 50 websites that have information about the University of Alabama - do a Google or AltaVista search for "Crimson Tide", "roll tide" , university of alabama, college footbal teams, but most especially, have a look at the official website for the University of Alabama Athletics, on:
http://www.rolltide.com/home/4097.asp
Much of the website is in the famous crimson that has terrorised so many teams from other schools.
Why not give your dad a thrill and buy him a hat or something as well to go with the car?
Have a look at:
http://www.bamastuff.com/?N192
that's their website for merchandise.
Good luck!

Cheers, LeeTree
