    Copy Cat.............
    I love that color on a fox. For some reason it just looks so cool.



    Looks like it is coming along nicely.


    I really like that upholustery as well but since I have a perfect set of 96 grey leather seats I cant bring myself to drop the coin for the seat skins right now....maybe down the road a little.

    I am about to order gauges and carpet for mine. The headliner is off getting re covered now. that will get me all the interior pcs. just have to finish re painting the plastics as soon as we get some nice weather..


    Sorry for the unrelated ramble on my car in your thread keep us updated on progress.

    You spray it yourself?
    You going to leave the black rubber strip around the bumper/body?

    Well, you may have your stang painted Azure Blue first, but I had a fox t-bird that was going to be the same color back in '07. only the engine bay was done though. LOL!

    I'm painting this myself in my garage, and using acrylic urethane paint with a $15 Harbor Freight gun. the pics aren't listed in order, but the body moldings are black now.

    Its all good man I dont own the color..lol.

    I didnt like the look of the black on the bumpers so I had it painted body color.
    Those 15 buck guns work well I did the primer on mine with one.

    Once we both get the cars finished we should meet up and cruise um around would be pretty cool to see a notch and a hatch in the same colors rolling side by side......

    So I see you removed the body moulding. Are you leaving it off?
    If so Id paint the black on the bumper the car color....
    Looks like it turned out fairly nice for a home paint job......
    I just didnt have the balls to spray the color on mine, I didnt want to have to wind up having it redone after all the sanding and work I did....

    Again looks real nice.

    the moldings are going back on. there a bit wavy, but I think I can get them to work.

    and thanks for the compliments! it'll look a lot better once everything is reinstalled, wetsanded, and buffed.

    Those won't match up to my bumpers. mine have to be from a 79-84 car to match.

    Are you planning on using a shaker style scoop? my 351w may have some hood clearance issues, and I may pick up one of those reproduction air cleaners.

    No biggie on the moldings someone someday will need them.........
    Yes I plan to pick on up next to gauges it is the last big $$ thing I need to pick up.

    From what Ive have discussed with the manufacturer the best fit for a 302 in a fox is to use the big block (429) KIT.

    Fathom the odd hypocrisy that Obama wants every citizen to prove they are insured, but people don't have to prove they are citizens.
