Yeah, pretty sure I have the colors picked out. I think it is important to the NFC movement to keep it 70's-ish. While I love the new wild pro-mod paints I think this needs to be old school. So to that end, here is what I think we are going to do with it.

Candy Wild Cherry as the main color. Think Candy Apple Red with a slightly more raspberry cast.

The graphics will be pretty simple down the center of the hood, roof, and decklid. Maybe add some marbleizer highlights and put some other colors in with a striper brush to separate the stripes.

Graphic colors to be Candy Oriental blue, "think Hamms blue". Candy Tangerine and White Pearl.

Of course it is all subject to change until it is actually on the car!!! :shock: :wink: :lol:

I love it. I also much prefer the 70s era paint jobs to the modern PM style ones. bp

too bad I let that old metallic glitter paint go when the shop closed , you could have tinted it in any color you wanted as it was silver glitter base . only reason we didn't use it was we didn't have the right gun to shoot it .
