Default Muscle Car Twist Honda

I am getting ready to do the whole car. Motor and full paint. What do you all think of doing a Honda with a muscle car twist? Like powder coat the block hemi orange. Same colors of a Challenger or a Roadrunner? And maybe redo the seats with the same stitching pattern? What do you all think?

haha...

I actually have two cans of chevy orange that I bought to paint my block with... but I chickened out and painted it gunmetal instead. There is a local guy with a build d-series turbo that has a chevy orange motor, I'll see if I can find some pics.

I still need to use the orange paint on something, maybe I'll use it on my valve cover.

Dont disgrace the Roadrunner/Charger. Leave a Honda to be a Honda, not a muscle car.
