It seems like maybe you want to give the car some extra identity to help bring out the hidden 350 H.O. status.
I'd probably get some small 350 H.O. decals made that resemble the 455 H.O. decals , and put one on each side of the center hump of the hood towards the front.

The wheel / hubcap combo isn't really working well with the flow..
Silver wheels and dogs , or full size hubcaps , or R2 wheels w/o rings , imho
Thanks BVZ! I like the idea of the 350 H.O. decal in the 455 H.O. style. Funny you mention the bare Rally II's as Dan & I were thinking the same thing. I'm not sure what color the factory painted bare steel wheels on a palladium silver car, but I think is was black. I agree, silver wheels with dog dishes would look better than black...working with what we got right now, however.

As for the stripes, most folks say yuck, I'm still undecided. I like this white '68 with the red H.O. style stripe.
