Arrow Coloring Contest

For Fun I thought we could have a coloring contest to see who can be the most creative. There will be some simple rules:
1. You may modify the picture but 50% must remain original.
2. You add your own wheels.
3. You may add a beer bottle/Barbie in front of the bumper.

The Contest ends on the 18th.
Just e-mail me for the picture. I've e-mailed Kenny to post the picture here. The winner shall receive a certificate stating they won the contest and have their picture posted. Sorry that isn't much of a prize but unless someone wants to donate something.

Just one question, are you talking about actually drawing the thing, taking a digital, and sending it in?

You are supposed to color it with a picture editor like MS Paint. The contest would take forever if you had to mail it. I didn't know you guys still used crayons. To e-mail me click on my name then click on send 51dueller an e-mail. BTW the picture is a '51 Ford F-1 5star cab.

I've sent three e-mails. Kenny, Mr4speed and Jgibbs. Hmm no e-mail from 'fenders and John Niolon. Maybe they are too OLD for a coloring contest?

Nathan,

I was a little suspicious that you wanted some ideas of how to paint your truck, now I know. Admit it, you need help being creative.

Actually after a lot of people's threads asking "How should I paint my truck?" this is a good idea. I wish I had thought of it.

I already know what I'm gonna paint the truck. I'm sticking with the original two tone scheme. The fenders are gloss black with the cab and box gloss white. I don't know if the american trucks came with two tone paint jobs. Also it was painted mission grey but the american trucks weren't. Thanks for posting the picture Kenny.
