    Sooner than you think, you 'ol poot.:p The car is at another guy's shop, so I am at the mercy of his schedule and I only get to work on it on weekends. I can't do anything to the car this weekend because John is on vacation. I am working on interior pieces (changing colors) and trim pieces (polishing) this weekend so they can go on the car next weekend.(y)

    Looks great, is that a Boss scoop on it? Cause I like Boss scoop on Mavericks.

    Like the color, it's better than the Taurus color, seems to have more courseness to it. (y)

    Cmet GT, Torino GT, Mach 1 scoop. John did something to the paint to make it pop like it does. I'm not sure what. We also put a black sealer over the primer and that helped darken the color and bring out the metallic look.

    Its a shame your stuck with a black interior. A white, tan or silver interior would really set that color off.

    One uses what one has. I had a black carpet and dark gray seats. According to the wife and daughter, "white is to hard to keep clean" and "tan is yucky." I had acquired a complete blue interior because we originally were going to paint the car a dark metallic blue. Black is a good color to change colors of dark colors. I am using a charcoal black on all the trim pieces. That gives a semi-sparkly look to contrat the trim black.

    I'd have to agree. I don't know what it is, but I just do not like tan interiors. I actually talked my dad out of buying a Mustang once because it had tan interior. Talked him into buying one that was white with black interior instead. :)
