It's alive!

Well, the Galaxie is alive again, running on all eight for a changes. New cylinder heads, paint the intake and valve covers, and sand most of the flames off it to make it presentable, and it's back on the road.
Now I just have to get some centercaps for the wheels, and stock height springs, then I can think about paint.
I'd like to do it as a two-tone, make it look like it has a vinyl top, but without the water and rust issues. Anybody here used bedliner material to make that look? I am thinking red with a white top.

I'm still working on those parts you told me to get but so many of the junkyards have been picked over. Maybe I should just buy them?
