    i think im going to go with a lighter color instead of black. my car is a dark black cherry color (bumpers and all) and this past summer i was burning up driving it (black Cherry+ Black interior= oven on wheals:D). i think i will go with a ford Azure blue, one of my friends told me i should go with a pearl white. i will still use the custom stallion emblems:thumbs2:
    and i still want to have that out of a mad max movie look (big bopper/March hare but without the yellow paint job)

    Ford azure blue is a nice color. I was considering that color at one time, but decided on Ford grabber blue after changing color from PPG grandeur blue.

    I think the azure blue came on a few 03 mach 1's

    racer, post some pics of your car with some good lighting so we can see how it looks.

    I have seen some cars with that dark cherry color, and I know it needs good light to be appreciated.

    Where do you live that it gets so hot?

    i think i can see a beach in the background of his pic :D

    you should 2-tone the car. leave the bottom black but make the top silver to reflect the heat more. then it would actually have that 2-tone stallion look anyway
