cmc i agree with ya man 32 coupe and flames there is no other way to have them LOL
but then i grew up around uncels and brothers that all they did was fix up cars and i dont hink i remeber any of the older ones that were not stock ever being anythign but flamed man i wish i ould have some of them today LOL
they did a 36 chevy truck once you could not put a lifesavers roll under the front bumper on it and flames werr all i remeber on it LOL but that was pre Speed mountains in the midded of the road .
when done right flames can look really nice on a car. but there are some cars i guess that dont need that touch for them to look nice. On the monte they screm do somethign to me plain white on the monte is like having a plain bill borad with nothign on it it is just there.
they need the flames or racing stripes or somethign on them to look right but then this is my opion talking
I think when they came out with the cowel indutiion hood it was the best thing they could have done for our cars. just wish it would have been a factory option i would have had it if it was.

04MonteLS was right. I asked for your opinions, I requested that they be given, therefore I will listen to AND not ignore all opinions on this matter.
kinda off topic, is the crease on the rear quarter panel highlighted w/red or am I seeing things?

Wait, wait, gotta defend the idea of flames on cars.
Come on, you telling me that you don't like the look of a flamed 32 Ford? Or what about flames on a 49 Merc lead sled? Don't ya have a single Hot Rodder nerve in your body man? Flames have been a part of the automotive culture for longer than anyone on this board has been alive. Sure it's ok to have an opinion, but sometimes opinions are wrong. Flames don't belong on cars? How could one come to such a conclusion or idea I'll never know.
Must not be a Hot Rodder I guess.
I do like flames, but only on Hot Rods and stuff. Well, actually, on that show Overhaulin', they did a full size chevy truck for this girl and they had a dude come in and he did some realistic 3-D flames. Well, it was more like fire rather than flames, but it was sweet! So all in all, I feel flames can be cool on cars, but personally I only like them on Hot Rods, or those sweet realistic flames/fire. However, SoCalSS's flames are unique and tastefully done so I'll make an exception.

Ouch!
I have something up my sleeve there buddy, it's gonna be a nice touch, and will set my Monte apart from the rest of the crowd.
