It looks nice in it's natural setting, like so:

Well it's funny, I just decided what to do with it this past week. I 
revamp the scheme every 5 years or so. My "new" upholstery from 1995? is 
all worn out now (damn Arizona sun)...

I'm gonna use both 63's as the focus of my graduate program thesis. THe 
wagon will get a new interior hopefully paid for my a grant! Instead of 
green and silver, likely something red, orange, gold, ... metalflake  of 
course. It's currently gold and silver now. They'll be a complementary pair.

This was it in the previous incarnation (in-car-nation, yuk yuk I crack 
me up):

Didn't like the way the black mask flames came out.

That's 1996 or so I think.
