    So, I have this '68 Mustang that I want to repaint...

    WOW!! Yes, that is PERFECT! If I were to ask a body shop for a stripe treatment, what would that be called? I LIKE it, rsev!! Thanks for all the help guys. Paint is such a committment and I am spending $10k on it so, I want it to be done perfectly. Thanks again.

    So, I have this '68 Mustang that I want to repaint...

    So pretty much the only way for it to look right is to start at the "hood scoops" like Kevin, and have them run over the roof and the back. Alrighty. :) Thanks!

    So, I have this '68 Mustang that I want to repaint...

    I was kinda afraid of that response. 1320stang, I looked at Kevin's car, and I just don't like the way that it looks. I am guessing that no one has done full racing stripes with that hood, either. Hmmmm... Maybe I'll just buy an Eleanor hood, weeee. If there's any more input you guys have...

    So, I have this '68 Mustang that I want to repaint...

    Hey everyone. I'm a regular over at 4.6L talk but I also have a '68 in additon to my '02 vert. It's got the turn-signal hood, and I was wondering that if I painted it and had racing stripes (typical Shelby pattern) painted on also, would it look strange given the "scoops" existing in the hood...

    Slightly random - Pepper gray metallic paint code, anyone know it?

    I was just thinking today of possibly repainting my'68, and have been mulling over doing an Eleanor-style paint scheme. To this end, I ask of you all - Whomever knows what paint code Pepper Gray Metallic is (that was used on Ellie), please let me know! Thanks in advance. :)

    Wow this is awesome

    I'd be sad if it was a GT, but since it's a V6, it's not worth more than a shrug. But that IS funny - They didn't even wash it before taking pictures. What a professional car dealership.

    I'm so sorry baby :(

    $5,800!! Wow... How much of that will be covered by your insurance? Hopefully with the increase in your insurance costs you'll be able to foot that bill. That'd be tough... August 19th. Wow, I'll be in Iraq by then. Scary. ENJOY IT!

    I'm so sorry baby :(

    As bad-ass as the '03 Cobra hood and bumper combo would be, you're talking about finances, keeping boost, etc. Simply put I think you'd be nuts to go for the Cobra stuff when you could put the GT stuff back on and keep the supercharger that's in your garage. Hell, just get a normal GT hood to...

    Kids imitating Pinks at local dragstrip tonight

    Ionno about that... We've got some light mods on my wife's Tiburon and it keeps up with the GT pretty damn well. At Little River drag strip her Tibby pulled ~14.6 93 deg F/88% humidity sea level and it's not blown, and with only light mods like a chip and intake. Don't underestimate that car...

    So why are my foglights blowing out??

    OK, so short of clear fogs (whih would be nice, but I am retiscant to spend any more $ on this car since I'm only going to have it a few more months, if that) I'll put some blue RTV on the seals and see how it likes that!!

    So why are my foglights blowing out??

    You know this never happened until I moved here to Texas where the humidity is like 85% every day. Maybe that's the problem.... As for touching the bulbs, when I install new headlights/fogs, I always use gloves to avoid that problem.

    So why are my foglights blowing out??

    Hey all. I've recently been experiencing problems with my '02's foglights. I'll replace one because it burnt out, then 3 days later the other will burn out, and then I'll that one and the other I JUST replaced will burn out again. Could I be using the wrong bulb? I am using 893s. Please...

    Mustangs protecting the streets of Hawaii!

    I'd know that color anywhere, it's Laser Red just like mine. Being said, it sure doesn't look like a real Mach 1 now that I've looked at it several times. Spoiler, brakes, color, badging... It all looks funny. Looks like a shakered, spoilered, grill delete'd GT.

    My car would be destroyed driving around here that low. Beautiful!!

    Mustangs protecting the streets of Hawaii!

    Miami Blue?? :) Anyway, I didn't think Mach1 was available in that color. Laser Red for the win. :) Very nice! In Phoenix they use Bullitt look-a-likes for traffic ops! Almost got nailed by one driving through to Killeen. Nasty...

    Friday Hooplah at work

    My wheel lock key is kept in my trunk. *shrug* As with military gear, none of that stuff was supposed to be left in the car. Tsk, tsk.
