Yeah, Mystery Machine...Of justice...

You know I've figured a couple things out

You can add "Of Justice" or "Of Doom" after any object or name of something (Such as Mystery Machine) and it WILL sound cool.

Auto Air makes some options for Flake and glitter paints...check them out, too.

Don't forget the odd shaped side windows and the pop-up sunroof.

Actually, the body has some kind of roof AC unit or vent on it......

I sprayed Pactra Candy Blue then sprinkled Parma Flake into it for about 3-4 alternating layers (sp?) then backed it with a couple coats of some kind of silver/aluminum lacquer. I applied it in this manner;
candy/glitter/candy/glitter/candy/glitter/candy/silver/silver/silver

I asked on DodgeTalk.com if anybody had any suggestions other than the A-Team Van and one of the PhotoShop guru's by the name of S. Weigel did this up for me
