I finished the body work and got the whole bird done in primer today, (with the exception of the bumpers) Here are some pics of it. I guess now after the car show tomorrow I will be adding another scoop on the driverside. :evilgrin: Then finish up some touch up spots that I missed, and paint it.
couple more pics.....:D
What colour do you guys think I should go? I already have a colour scheme picked, but lets hear some ideas.
mineral grey w/ a black top
Stock.........................
j/k;)
Green with black accents. You never see green on these cars.
there's a reason for that...:disappoin
unless you're a member of Type O Negative.
I'm feeling a blue/white or blue/black scheme, but I'd have to see your design first.
Btw, that fender scoop looks really cool!
Thanks!
..... you must be part psychic or something.... I am thinking white with blue..... but I wont say what til it is done;):D
Black and blue would be cool too though.....
LOL, actually I thought about two tone deep forest green on silver.
FWIW, i was thinking of this for my car. havent really decided yet.

love the hood with the TC nose. im still not sure about the fender scoop. i might like it more when its painted. are you painting theat mesh black?
That black/blue combo looks pretty cool. I know no one puts green on these cars. If I had one and redid it, I would at least attempt it. Forest Green was what I was thinking, and Silver would compliment that really well. When I get a bird I plan on Forest Green, unless I already like the color lol.
Not blue and white ron,please i beg of you man.
Either all one color or two tone black and silver,and no racing stripes man.
There is a guy around here that painted his TC deep forest green,it looks absoloutley sweet.
grey on black most defiantly!!!
Well I wasn't thinking of stripes. I will have to think about the colour combination alittle more I guess. you guys have some cool ideas for paint.
Bright red on the top and black on the bottom.
nice paint wish my was cool like that.
In my opinion i think a darker blue would look nicer. good idea and paint scheme.
Calypso Green!
:iagree: with white stripes.
Sage green like you see on the new fusions
I dunno, I am really liking that black on blue scheme. Think you could change the blue to silver? or maybe even white?
i didnt do the chop, a friend did. ill ask him if he wouldnt mind doing another one.
alright, i didn't mean it looked bad in any way, its a cool scheme. But a darker blue might look cooler, maybe a midnight blue or a shade lighter than that.
you could always go purple/pink:

lol.
um HELL NO!!! to that colour. maybe if I wanted to enter it in the gay parade, but other then that, not a chance on that colour! I dont care what kind of horsepower it has.
ahem silver metalic over medium gray metalic;)
Personally I think that’s HOT, Of course yes you have to have the power to sport a paint job like that. But I love it! Have any more info on that car?
if you are going to use a color off the Fusions use the Charcol gray they have. If i can come up with a 2tone i like its going to be that color and black
It is up for sale on Ebay (http://"http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-Thunderbird-pro-street-tubbed-thunderbird_W0QQitemZ150129900788QQihZ005QQcategoryZ6240QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem") right now.
man you have gone to another level, body mods! (more than removing trim and adding scoops from a book - no disrespect to some of the others on the level) i personally think the angle could have been fine tuned, but hey it might be to your liking! to me that mod, which is basically a knock off of the stock tc hood scoops that everyone wants when they first see them, but put them in almost IMO a better place. stock TC it works, otherwise just something in the way. here tho, this needs a paint that will make the mod stand out. im on the fence callin for a charcoal grey with red pinstripe. definatly metalic but light enough so that the scoops are in your face from the corner angle. btw, what are you using to paint the bumpers? i might like a couple of those... it would look crazy on a wide body T...
Okay i tried but i wish i could have got a better silver. I would like to do a silver and black paint scheme on my sport. So I did a chop of my car with the paint the opposite way too.
That is the shiznit dude!!!! I vote the 2ed one!!
yup, that second one speaks "fast".
silver on top for sure !!!
this is the color im refering to

Yeah i have only been using PS for a couple of months and i have NO idea how to get it to look like silver should really look.
that is a cool scheme sleeper, I may use that one.
