I think you are doing a very good job! I love the new color also, and it looks like you are NOT missing one single detail.

I'm just about done painting my 66 coupe. I used Nightmist Blue. Color code K. Is yours the same color?

87-93 Mustang coupe/hatchbacks...I love them. We have a 89 5.0 convert that will be my next project.

Oh, to have a two car garage and neighbors that don't call the local authorities about painting your vehicle in your garage (long story)! Can't wait to see it finished. I'm seriously thinking of sonic blue for the 67 after buying the 06, which is sonic blue w/silver stripes.

Looks great! The great thing about a new car color is easily getting touch-up paint. You hope you never need it, but in case you do...

SNAKGUTS: Post a picture of the 06GT, I am also doing silver stripes on my car.

As for the garage, I only have a 1 car at my house, Thats my parents house, They have 7 acres a 2 car garage and a huge barn. My two mustangs are in the barn for the winter and I am also painting the 65 in the barn.
The Fox is next to my moms 92 camaro, poor little fox.

To put a picture in this thread, you need to have it uploaded on a website somewhere. Then find and copy the address where the picture is located. Wrap that address with the html image tags [img] and [/img] in your post. Not that hard to do but a little hard to explain. Here is one of your pictures

Here is what it would look like when you type out your post but without the a. If I didn't add the a, then it would just show up as a picture in this post.

Ed S.,

33,567 hits? Don't understand.

Stang28965,

I know what you mean, I only passed the dealer once when I saw it on the lot, went back with the wife, 8 hours later we were driving it home!

I can't remember. I'll have to do some digging
to find out, I have since put my battery back up front so I no longer have the braker in my car.

I am pretty sure I got it at "US Boats"
