    Can anybody show me some pictures of Mavs/Comets with metallic blue paint? I'm thinking of going with this colour for my car and was wondering how it would look. Thanks!

    thanks Maverick Guy! I dreaded picking the color, was the biggest decision ever. Turns out its 1986 Ford F-150 Midnight Blue (my dads old truck). The purple with pearl was just a gamble, and it came out beautiful. The silver in the back was the body man's idea, matched to the decals. Im glad he mentioned it, I love the backside on that car.

    steve,

    they sure are. notice the missing Ford Oval on the center caps? I cut that part out, made a filler and painted it black. Then took Chrome Looking stickers and put "GT" in the center. It was a good idea, but the weather seems to have removed my stickers... oh well.
