| | | Need lots of true blue pics ASAP ! Post 'em up !
I am looking at painting my 68 True Blue. This is about to be a pretty expensive paint job, so I want to be sure -
-First off what do you guys think ?
-Second off please post up any all pics no matter what the weather conditions, or time of day. I want to see all the possible scenarios - http://forums.stangnet.com/attachmen...chmentid=17911
I may add some silver, or gray stripes along the bottom of the doors too from tire to tire (GT-350 stripe)

BTW, I love that front grille on your Stang. Looks sweet. Mind if I ask where you got it? |

I just installed a Pro-fit fuel door this week on my Stang. I like the look of the brushed aluminum against the True Blue background. Don't have any pics yet but will post some this weekend.
Love all these True Blue Stang pics being posted here. |

Hey man,
I think true blue is too dark for your car, it will hide some of those beautiful lines. Maybe Sonic Blue? Or Mineral grey for something totally different.

Here's their web site: http://www.fueldoors.com/ | cool cool. ya the electric ones were quite expensive and i didn't see the need for one either. hey i saw on the 3rd pic you posted a black patch coming from out of the fuel door area. is that the fuel bib that they offer on their site? if so, how do you like it? is it easy to install, pretty much just push over and you are done? | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
