Here is my custom 69 Satellite finished after almost 2 years. I posted some pics awhile back before paint. I think it turned out great. Pictures don't do it justice. The custom touch is lower 70 rear quarter skins which everyone who has seen it in person seems to like, including some old Mopar guys. The American Racing wheels also add a nice contrast to all the gray. Next upgrade is a 440 swap for my 318. Tell me what you guys think of the car.

Wheels look good and that 70 quarter scoop makes the car look different and your own.
 
That is a beauty! I like how you did that, Looks pretty cool!
 
It does look very nice. The wheels are great except not enough rubber, JMO.

I absotively LOVE the color. what paint code did you use?

i agree with Superfreak in that i would prefer some rubber on those nice rims

i'm also curious about the brows on the front fenders and quarters as it defiantly looks like you like you have accentuated them wdyd?

The paint is PPG- 2008 BMW Sterling Gray. The front quarters are the original 69 fenders, no custom work other than removing all of the Satellite trim pieces along bottom and removed badges. I am thinking I will go with more tire when I replace them. I am going to put 2" drop spindles on the front which I think will make it look better. I don't like the gap at the top of the tire and fender.
 
That is one sweat car, love the color.
