Looking great. The flake really pops outside. I like it :).

Perhaps she'd like these wheels better:
88 Thunderbird LX: 306, Edelbrock Performer heads, Comp 266HR cam, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, bunch of other stuff.

Thanks Lou. I'll show 'em to her. I've got the doors hung and all gaps set. I hung the fenders on just for the pics and a place to keep them. Here's a few pics.

Looks great so far! I think the color is good for it, too. Good work.

You know looking at your car again I can see that you added more flake than the factory does on stock Mustangs. I like it even more than the color on Mustangs. I think you made a great choice on color :).

Thank you very much Lou. The "flake" looks a whole lot bigger when out in the sun than it does inside.

Get some American Racing Aero wheels. I have them on my T-bird and in my opinion they're a perfect fit on the car :D

Kinda reminds me of a 60's gasser.
