Nice scheme, it really is tied together by the stripe and the colors' similarities.

I think some Dog Dishes would set that car off.  Grin

I've seen painted Ralleye Rims, as strange as it may sound, I think they would give it some "cool", some "weird", and some "stock", especially with Dog Dishes.   Grin (maybe minus the last thing) The car I saw them on was a stock mid 'Cuda, they just didn't look right on it...

I think some stock steel wheels painted flat black with a red stripe on that bulge where the dog dishes would attach to would look pretty cool

Wow, that's looking real good... REAL GOOD!    My vote would be for those wheels done in charcoal gray.   Would tie in real nice with the upper color...

The dolly was the paint guys not mine, but it just looked like some 2"x10" or 12" screwed together with 4 casters on it. Sorry if my wording was confusing, i got it back from the paint guy, and into my garage was what i meant. I wish i could take credit for it but can't  throw money. Doing bodywork was almost the end of my project several times, i just dont enjoy it and would get all bummed out. so i decided to just take it somewhere instead of quiting all together. I was only responsible for the colors, which im still decideing if i like the red or not, it is way brighter then i anticipated and almost orangeish but i think its growing on me.

Don't sweat the red/orange stripe.   "Pops" real nice against the other two colors.   Another nice touch would be a professionally painted pinstripe on the hood, done in the same red/orange...
