Hi all,
I just thought I'd say hello and tell you all about a project I'm working on. I've owned my Mustang quite a long time now (7 years) and I'm in the process of restoring her and painting her like the car used in the 1974 film, gone in 60 seconds, which I understand much of you are fans of.
If you guys (and girls??) are interested I can upload some progress pictures of my build. I'm quite a long way through the process already with the car hopefully going into primer in a couple weeks.
This is where I need your help, I'm in two minds as to what shade of yellow to paint her. From my limited research I am able to do, I understand that the cars were painted school bus yellow?? But this isn't a standard Ford colour offered for the Mustang and I'm not sure I 'should' paint her a non standard Ford colour. So do I paint her school bus yellow or Medium Bright Yellow?? What's your thoughts??
Thanks,
Martin
