I'm going to do mine in a Zombie Hunter theme!

That's so awesome! are you gonna start out green throw some black paint maybe a bio hazard symbol? Or start out black then go green?

When the time comes! I'm hoping someone has a vehicle wrap with a theme I like. diffidently have to have a boi hazard symbol on it somewhere! it's fun to think and dream.

I'd like to see a woody version, like a 57 nomad

A woody might be interesting but might be a bit difficult to render/produce due to the body scallop in the doors.

I'm not going with a wrap, I've read they only look good for 2-5 years and I want mine to look good for much longer.

Out of curiosity what do you expect to have to pay for that paintjob? Not to include the custom chrome.

I'm planning on $2-3k based on figures I've seen people mention and googling.

I wouldn't pay for it. I said I woud like to see it. I personally would be happy with the creamcicle version that comes off the line. I consider this vehicle what it is. Fun,ecconomical transportation.

I am thinking sporting a two tone. Here is a quick thought. Custom paint on very unique vehicle is bound to draw a lot of attention. There is a very nice area on the back of the Elio below the license plate that would be a fantastic place for "Custom paint by: Holy Smoke Customs" for maybe a 25% discount or whatever you might be able to negotiate. That space is just made for a message..

I have a shop nearby whose owner restores antique vehicles and I have built some oak roof struts/supports/frame for him. I'm going to have a talk with him and see if we can work something out. He is a fairly small shop but quite good. He once did some 3 stage paint on my 97 T-bird and I could not tell that it had ever repainted. And this was after its being 10 years in the Arizona sun!
