Alright, I still detest the flat-color, heck i generally don't ever like flat black cars either. The fact that you pulled that off and had it come out that well with rattle can paint gets the knod. Good job.

Well I'm currently trying to convince her she needs the 88 mark vii lsc I picked up two or three months ago, it's in much better shape. but which ever one she decides on will get a stroker, and a supercharger, shorty headers, and full exhaust, black 03 cobra wheels, and a blacked out paint scheme.

It's the larger krylon can. I was really surprised how well it covers. I painted a mustang flat black with cheep walmart paint years ago, and it took 14 cans.

well here it is as it sits today. Did the turbo coupe on the doors, but not sure if I'm going to keep it.  Thats the good thing about spray paint, if I dont like it it goes away!

you can't go shinny green or black and green 2 tone. out of respect for me and vinnie.

i am going to do a 2 tone bullitt this next year.


But you could do a 2 tone green fade bottom dark green and top bright green. with some gunmetal 93 cobra wheels.

i saw a 2 tone orange Turbocoupe with stock wheels and white interior at the junkyard that car looked sick so i bet you could do the same thing with the greens.

Nice looking car and your girls lincoln also looks like a nice ride.

Interesting car.  If you're gonna go flat green like a military vehicle, at least lose the Duran Duran lookin' black trim with a red pinstripe. Mixed messages!
