Well like I have said before gonna be getting the body on the car reworked since 16 years has taken a toll on her. I dont have any real good pics right now but will try to get some this weekend. I will be adding Draglites and tint soon also....She is a standard white GT and will be staying white....I am either gonna add a Cervinis Stormin Norman hood or a 3inch cowl....opinions would be much appreciated. I am not sure have considered also a saleen wing depending on what hood i end up with. Anyways with the white paint i would like to do something else to make it stand out. Was thinking of two blue lemons stripes like the ones found on the '65-'66 white shelbys ....Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks Steve

I'll have some pics of her this weekend...Im gonna try to get her out of the garage if it is nice out.

i would do a really bright white with a very light blue pearl coat. I painted my dads Triumph this summer white with blue pearl and it looks sick, the blue explodes when the light hits it.

The problem with the stripes like pictured above is that they go too crazy with them... I'd only place the stripes on the hood and hatch, not all the way from the bottom of the bumpers.

My car is going to get painted white + luminesant (sp?) white pearl...

Yeah blue pearl is nice... Orange pearl on white would be nice too and more rare... The pearl I want to put on will make it look like a white paint that sort of glows in the dark lol It has some orange, blue and green but not as stong as you'd think...
