Re: Another really ugly MG
I like the two tone paint scheme except for the pink color. It looks like 1955 Ford Victoria stainless moldings design; very unique and creative, I like it......

Both are nice dogs. I like the brown one better.

Re: Another really ugly MG
I think it's cool. Would need the right owner to "fit" of course and that may be hard to find.

Re: Another really ugly MG
I never liked that side trim moulding on the '55 Ford. It's just a bad idea for the trim to break the natural highlight of the fender.

Re: Another really ugly MG
That's funny, that's kind of what I liked about it. My wife even thought about having me get it for her as a fun car but decided it was too pink for her.

Re: Another really ugly MG
That's okay. It does make it unique. Ask any artist or automotive stylist, though. It's definitely a no-no.
It does need a different two-tone paint scheme. |
