Man, that silver Cobra in that pic above is badass.

I like the spoiler that was on that Mach. :D

Nice!

You said you did that at your own body shop. How much do you usually charge to paint a Mustang one single OEM color? Say Sonic Blue, or Black, etc? I know something like Mystichrome would be more expensive.

Thanks Jroc.

Sorry for the confusion, but I meant my body shop "guy." So, it is not my body shop, but the body shop I go to for custom paint work.

My car was already silver so all that was added was the red and black. I also went to th shop and helped the painter lay out the checker graphics. So, I did have my own time and labor involved in the project.

Not my taste, but it looks like clean. Craftsmanship and detail is excellent.

Thanks for your feedback guys. I took it to a car show last night and a lot of guys liked it. So, if you were to see it in person you might have a different opinion.

Thanks Zeekman. As I had said before this car does look better in person. Thanks for appreciating the work I put into this.

Thanks Quicktime. I actually started using automotive paint to paint my die cast cars. So, that is how I got my start. It actually took 3 diecast cars to make that one. Which is why it has all the correct parts.

I saw you the other day and noticed. Nice job

Hey Cobra 08. Yes, I remember you were on the other side of the intersection from me. If you know of any get togethers around here please let me know. BTW, Thanks for the compliment.

Funny enough there is a terminator that lives behind me and he stays to himself. I want to introduce myself but I dont want to feel like a stalker. There is a car show if your not aware at hudsons on Lee Trevino on Saturday I believe. There is a Poster outside. That is as much as I know. I dont know if Casa Ford had there horsepower Round Up this year.:shrug: I went last year.

Ill see you on the streets some time. Cobra 08:beer:

Yes, Hudson's has a car show the last Friday of every month. I think that is where I was headed when you seen me. I will not be able to make it to Hudson's this weekend.

I know the guys at Casa Ford and went to their car show as well last year. I have been hoping they would have their horsepower round up this year, but have not heard anything as of yet. I'll keep you posted if I hear anything.

Also, if you are interested there is supposed to be a big car show at sunland park casino on Fathers Day this month. I will probably be going to that one.

Thanks for the info :beer:.
