How to replicate Baldwin Motion graphics on a c3 1968 sb cvt

[Tom C.]

I am brand new to this group- so please excuse any gaffes. I just bought a 1968 sb 327/350, 4 speed convertible in red with a black interior. It's a 15 footer. I would like to replicate the Baldwin Motion paint scheme look with black tail wrap & stripe going up to the front ending at the end of the stinger(spear?). However, they do a BB so the hood will be different- perhaps more simple. I have looked at 3m wrap material and have an inquiry into Phoenix Graphics and Stencils & Stripes. I think that I will completely redo the car in the Fall so this is just a bit of a low cost experiment as I want to see what it will look like. I am no body work expert. Any advice? Thanks

You're probably on the right track with Phoenix Graphics.
A friend of mine did something similar with his '73, using a local shop.
He was satisfied with that also.

Welcome to NCRS Tech Board.

As you plan to redo your car, my low cost "solution" would be to play around graphics-wise with PhotoShop. Easy to change and no cost if you don't like your results. I would have overhead, side, front & back, and 45 degree images of your car. Need to view graphics from a variety of angles.

Good idea to test with "wrap" type application - don't like, just peel away.

We have a weekend of pure rain for the next few days- sounds like I will be learning photo shop! Thanks for the help
