is that the original paint on that tangerine gt?

Mine?

It was red originally. I bought in Jan 09 as a parts car and put it back together. As near as I can tell it was painted Orange in the late 90's. I am told that the color was supposed to be the Tangerine Orange that came on Mustangs in 96. The car has faded significantly and is much lighter that it was originally painted. The parts of the car protected from the sun are much darker.
 
seems like i remember reading a long time ago that ford offered the tangerine color in 93 but only sold like 15 or so of them all to a dealer in GA. i know i read this somewhere in a magazine but cant remember where. Ive also not been able to find out any more about the color offering. thats why i asked. I think that the color looks great on a fox, though.
 
Thanks a lot for the compliments on the Sport..I know this is primarily a Stang house,but,everything that can be done to a Stang can pretty much be done to these Birds.The springs are coming from a '95 Mustang for the front.They fit right in,and drop the nose about 1.5 to 2 inches.Free from the boneyard,even better.I may have mentioned before,I have a set of shock adapters for the rear that will allow the use of SN95 Stang shocks.T-Bird shocks are longer than Stangs parts,but bolt in the same.It's been a challenge to build (and still is),and,it has surprised a few Mustang owners around here.I have a few more things planned for the old girl.The budget is tiny,so,one piece at a time.LOL.

I would like to see more pictures and interior pics as well and maybe a video :)
