I think you would make more of an impact if you went with a real color. If the car is going to be sold then some variation of a burnt/sunset orange with a metallic stripe. A variation on the shelby stripe would be cool. You want it to "look" factory, but be custom. That way is won't look dated down the line.

If I had a nickle for every silver/grey shelby stiriped Mustang I've seen.. It's a "safe" color but not a very exciting choice.

I understand really , I am open to other colors and nothing is set in stone yet . I like your color of your car and did think of that color also . I like suttle things that catch your eye. thanks for the constructive critisum, I will see what happens

well if it makes you feel any better the wagon is going up for sale . The Camaro I built with the money from my 69 camaro and the 72 chevelle i sold .The camaro I bought right before the camaros started going nuts, I did a smart LS1 swap and did well on selling it , That helped a lot. Real estate prices in my area helped a lot also .

I am a car dealer also

I'm jumping on the "Color" band wagon. At the very least, choose a real color for the stripes.
