Default Restomod/Pro Touring Ideas

I am looking to restore my 66 coupe in the next month. I almost completely stripped the car yesterday and plan on doing a lot of the bodywork/prep for paint today. Yet I am still not 100% sure where I want to go with this project. I am looking to make it a restomod/protouring but not sure how yet. The drivetrain and engine are all done (302, alum heads/intake, LTs, holley 4bbl, comp cam, 9in, B&M shifter). I like the look of the 1966 mustang terlingua below and will probably go a similar route. Any other pics or suggestions? Im still not sure on color, body (shelby valance, stock, etc.), rims and what size rims, etc. If anyone has any pics that wold be great.

That is a nice clone of the Terlingua even though the paint style isn't even correct. If I ever get my 67 painted I'm going with the Terlingua style. I really like it, I would do Torq Thrust Originals in 15" size.

<-- Real Terlingua style

It appears to me that people have trouble with replicating the Terlingua paint style or there are just many different ways to do it

All the S197 terlinguas are made by Shelby, so those are correct. Others I guess are just redoing the style.
