Cuz that’s what the internet does best

I want to paint something on the wall. My first thought was the side profile of an RT/10 and the second thought was a ln outline of leguna seca. Third idea was planets and stars.

I want to keep it simple, just white and blue to match the J and his curtains

What are your ideas?

My opinion is that green gold is my favorite factory color on the 73 Electra. And now I know it looks good as an interior color too.

A galaxy or nebula - he’ll dream big.

What about expanding the J to the whole name and hanging them on ribbons? My wife made this for our son. The big kid bed is there now but its been there since his crib was and filled that space well. You could even stick with the space theme and mix some star, planet, and rocket wall stickers in that are easy to remove later. Another thought - instead of painting, what about creating the RT/10 silhouette on the PC and ordering a die-cut vinyl sticker of it. That way it’s still something you created, but you don’t have to worry about the mess of the paint (I’ve noticed you’re pretty damn good with Photoshop/CAD/etc)

Are you married to the idea of painting? I’ve found wall vinyls go up easy, and allows you to change it up later.

That looks good but I wanted an excuse to paint on the walls.

I like your idea of planet, moon, stars, etc.

I like the laguna seca idea. It is certainly legendary and easily recognizable by Jalops.

What about a track that is local to you and your kid? Some place you might create a lasting memory.

Kinda. Although the vinyl is removable I can’t do it this weekend

Ironically, that’s damn close to the interior color of the 64 225 my shop just finished restoring.

I’m the world’s worst interior designer, but cars and space were two of my favorites as a kid.

Hope the little guy is doing better after the surgery and antibiotics.

True, with vinyl, you’re at the mercy of shipping.

I was thinking of doing a few at about a 1' diameter, Jupiter, Saturn, a spiral galaxy and a comet. 1 giant spiral galaxy could be cool
