ive always loved the Dodge Viper GTS Blue PearlFor many years I have always thought for sure I'd go with Bright Atlantic Blue for the paint color, then a year or two ago I saw the Chevy color Riptide Blue and I was torn. I really wanted to see them side by side but finding a BAB Mustang isn't easy, then getting it next to a Vette or Camaro in that color is even harder. So I asked Kevin to spray samples of both, he sent me this text earlier and I don't even know which is which. He's gonna spray the samples but damn they are close!

Not a lot to show at the moment, still looks like primer but with more dust on the ground every time. About ready to do the bed liner on the undercarriage, and the engine block is at the machine shop.
Progress is progress. Once it’s ready to be painted you know Kevin doesn’t mess around.
Are you going to run Vert doors on your Coupe with the T-Top conversion? If so do you need these?
Don’t seem to be very common.

My doors are the hard top doors with the window frames cut, and T-Top specific reinforcements added to them according to what @95steedamustang told me he was doing on it.
When Kevin sent me the pics earlier this is what I sent him back.
What color did you end up going with? I know you were between two but didn’t see what you picked
Kinda didn't pick... Kevin and I talked many times about color and I was always pretty set on BAB, he knew that and said he'd put his own twist on whatever I choose. Once he got the two samples, and we couldn't tell them apart it's basically a BAB with some extra pearls in it. He is going to ship me a test panel (I assume small piece lol) so I can see it in person. If I want to change it that's fine, it was just the bottom of the trunk, if not, send it...
The color is going to be great! I can't wait to see it finished!
That’s my bad …been taking some time off but we goin get some paint flowing soon.
To be perfectly fair... I had a $15k emergency plumbing problem, so I asked Kevin to give me a couple of months to rebuild the cash buffer. Ready to go now, just waiting in line.
