Car show in Ocala

So yesterday was my first time to the Mopar with Big Daddy in Ocala, while I've wanted to go for a while, just didn't find the time to do so... Since we have car parts to find and obtain, we went this year and many many many GORGEOUS cars to look at and my mind is just churning with design possibilities for my Coronet!


I still love the purple of the top car, and am 95% sure my Coronet will be paint Plum Crazy, with the side striping of the blue car.  Instead of the "Super Bee"  in the center, there will be a breast cancer awareness ribbon.  However, since it IS a tribute car, I'm waffling a little and am considering painting the exterior Panther Pink/Moulon Rouge pink (depending on who you ask!)



Joe thinks the ribbon will stand out more on the plum, and I agree; but I need to see the interior of the donor car (see below) before making any "set in stone" decisions.  Joe was "manning" the camera so I don't have a shot of the pink car, but you get the idea....

In other big news....  I purchased a Power Bulge hood for the Coronet and it was delivered earlier this week.  Joe was able to stop by the frieght office and pick it up:
 
Needs a little lovin' but so does the car, so it's a perfect match!  My super awesome wonderful hubby also found a wrecked Chrysler 300 without a motor that we are able to purchase for a song, so we are now going to try to graft the shell of the coronet on the inner workings of a 2006 vehicle.  It will be like driving a luxury muscle car!!
