    Short of Grabber Blue which my car is my 2nd choice is Grabber Green. I would have done my car Grabber Green if my interior wasnt blue.

    Ive got a black 72 with green neon stripes, and when I painted it I put in a cut out in body color with "FORD 302" in the stripe color. Only on the hood though. I was gonna do it on both sides of the hood but that would have been too much work and I'm lazy because im a teenager so.... yeah.
    I'll see if I can find some pics.

    I haven't taken any recent pictures with the hood on the car, but I do have some of the hood alone after it was painted.

    Nothing about building a car is harder than choosing the color, I struggle with it every time. I suggest pick out three colors and buy two more cars :tiphat:
