I've been working on the firewall and cowl while I go round and round on color.

I would vote for this color... the supersonic blue looks good with the black wheels and trim.

Thanks Dale. I'm leaning back toward blue as well. I think the grey centers on the wheels will get lost with black and possibly clash with cyber grey metallic as its close but not the same. I like the cyber grey color but have been noticing there's a lot of everyday cars painted a similar grey. I also think it mutes some of the body lines. Red is nice but mght look funny sitting next to my dads red car that's a custom pearl mix. Supersonic is probably the safest bet on my gamble.

Good luck on color choice! Your car is going to turn out great, though. It took me a very long time to make a final decision on color. I finally pulled the trigger on HOk Stratto blue.

Well guys. Just got back from the paint supply. No turning back now. It's supersonic blue.

I am not a fan of the RS stuff either .... and I have RS fenders, I have to convert them of course. As far as color NOT BLACK!!!!!!!
Hi Chief. I have a Miller 211. I know its the wrong color but it seems to work well up to 1/4 on 220V. Havent gone past 1/4" but its rated up to 3/8. I usually run it on 110 for small stuff because its convenient. I've been very happy with it.

I'm not partial to a color ... I looked at the Miller 211, and if I remember correctly (which I could be wrong) you could not weld 3/16 single pass w/o flux core wire? Sound right?

It looks like the Lincoln Power Mig 180 Dual should work for me.

I think the supersonic blue is a good choice as well.
