When you apply 6 coats of clear is it necessary to color sand any between coats? And how long after you spray on the epoxy primer can you wait before squirting on the color?
Very nice work indeed, I love the color! As for the no stripes, I have seen Shelby's without and they don't look right. BTW, did you know that no '67 Shelbys were shipped with stripes from Shelby? They cost something like $60 for Shelby to do it, which seemed outrageous to the Ford dealers selling them, so they just had their own body shops do it.
If it was my car it would not have stripes or be painted green.
When I first started building my clone, I wanted to paint it one color (black) and no stripes. But I saw a pic of a black, no stripes '67 and it just didn't look "right" to my eyes. I don't know why, it just didn't. Since then I've seen a few '67's on ebay without stripes in various colors and not one of them looked right. Maybe it's because my brain equates Shelby Mustangs with stripes, but if you're gonna do a Shelby, either the real thing or a copy, it needs stripes. Just my opinion, but that's the way I see it.Whenever you think of a 65 - 67 Shelby you think stripes so we will be adding stripes. If it was my car it would not have stripes or be painted green.

Have you seen one in red without stripes
Lucky kid!
Have you seen one in red without stripes
Not to be a nit picker (that is a beautiful car) but it appears to be a 68 with a 67 hood and narrow grill lights. Or someone added 68 side markers to a 67?
