You going to paint it yourself?



Better have some experiance.......





Go to a local body shop that paints with PPG paints and offers lifetime warranties. You don't wanna go cheap on this kinda stuff.

No I'm not going to paint it myself! And I thought it would be better to get a picture of a car fully painted to get the image then getting a little peice of paper with color on iut and thinking,"I wonder if that will look good"!

This is my take on car care. I've NEVER had a SINGLE person say anything but sweet results than with what I've told them:

Hey, picture the car in your head ... forget worrying about "what if it scratches" cause as long as you take car of it you'll be fine ... but try and picture in your head what an AWESOME mustang will look like then go with that color.  I'm getting a 65 and I picture it a dark blue with gold racing stripes on it with all the crome fittings.  Screw what everybody else thinks, man!  The beauty of restoring mustangs or ANY car is that it's YOURS and you can do with it as YOU please.
