FYI-Duplicolor makes a black semi-gloss color that comes in a spray can available at most auto parts stores. They also make a primer that is specifically for plastic painting. That's what I used and it came out pretty good. I need to upload some current pics as well. Fitting fastback panels and all the trim is a pain in the buttocks. I had to use some aftermarket pieces which some fit great and others are ok at best.

Also, I hate the cold when trying work on my car. Can't wait until spring already. Ok, I'm done.

Yeah zmetalmilitia I've been wanting to see more of your car, you should make a thread and include older pics if you've got them.

I was also wondering what paint and primer, thanks for the answers.

Not really sure what to do next. I'm leaning towards front suspension and brakes but just not sure. Any suggestions............

What are your plans? Any suspension changes or just a general refurbish? And are you going to disc brakes?

For the front and rear suspension I plan on going with Mustang's Plus it's only a 20 minute drive from my house. Here are the link's to what I intend on using: https://www.mustangsplus.com/xcart/1...build-Kit.html

As for the brakes I plan on using SSBC Force-10 Classic Power Front Disc Brake Conversion Kit:

Don't forget to lube those bushings, the squeak they make if you don't is sooooo annoying.
