two tone sounds good! Have it lowered also! I bought Ford Racing B-Springs and had it lowered.

Yellow rules. Stripes do too if done properly. :dean1: are so 70s LOL
I hope those are old pics. That car is no where near ready even for primer

I would one tone it with a unique color from "House of Color". If the color is rite and the paintwork is good the car will look incredible. I would say a metallic color for sure. -Shane

I see a fox here that has a dark blue or black top and like a gold or brownish color on the bottom, and it looks hot :harold1:

I really think that would look cool. I'm color blind, but I can always see silver and grey. Good luck on your decision and you have a nice four eye too! :mick:

I personally Wouldn't choose Gold. You would look like a biggo Trophy topper driving around.
I thought Mike had a great idea.
I like these 2 colors:

I noticed that right away, but then forgot to ask about it. What front clip do you plan on using?

You dont see many 83's or 84's i would stick with that. I got a 83 myself just my opinion.

That's awesome you are going back to 85. I like the 83 and 84's a lot, but I always tend to like the correct front clip on the car.

Candy Purple Pearl or Black & Blue Pearl. They both look like a deep blue with a hint of purple. I noticed the 83 nose and was hoping you were going to put a 85 nose back on it. Post up pics when she's done.

Have you made any decisions on the color combo that you will be going with? When are you thinking about doing the paint job?
