i actually need ideas for paint... i want the colour to be blue, and prefer not going two-tone, yet i want it to be different, ive thought about a satin finish? or multi layered paint application where it gives a different shade effect on the same colour on the edges and lines of the car if that makes sence... if anyone has some ideas id be real interested, the products will be house of kolor since house of kolor in australia have decided to help out

since you guys like seing pics and it is an american muscle car site, here are some pics of my cousins 69 mustang convertable, imported from california car still left hand drive (Australia is RHD) car was in not the best of conditions... stripped it down n started from scratch, re done the inside in tan leather, ripped out the 289 n threw in a 302, resprayed in candy apple red, 17" twister billets, x2 15" subs etc... with more work on the way to make this thing tougher...

thats a nice Stang CVN
What about a darker Blue with a tint in it
Owen Webb is that guy that owns that Blue Lj with a sb in it?

thanx mate, i prefer going with a lighter to mid tone of blue was an idea ive had for quite a while now, and Owen Webb as far as i know has a very nice example of an XW GT falcon, his the head guy in charge of House of Kolor here in australia and judges at the top shows in the country

mate i v seen that XW it has simmons on it gold i think and a whitish interior?
if its that 1 that s a reall nice car!
Is he painting ur Vn for you? :thumbsup:
