thanks silverfox hopefully lol im kind of working off a hearse styled theme ive named the car "Grim" already .....the hearse look is an idea my dad had for one of the malibu wagons he had back in the day but never got around to doing it .......my dad also owns a 83 malibu wagon currently as his daily driver so its kind of fun working on them and seeing them next to eachother lol
