Did you see the Roush Stage 3 on the cover of the Modified Mustangs December issue? Not sure how to work black in - maybe semi-gloss black stripes vs the royal blue?

... I don't care what you want, but I have always wanted to go with olive green w/black double rally stripes... I think that you should do that and then send me pics so I can see what it looks like... But of course I would have to blow your car up if it would look like I think it would so the idea would stay original... I wonder if the chop shop can pull off something like that for me...

But in all seriousness... I personally like the solid black color (and solid paint schemes in general)... I would do the blue thing as accents to the interior… You might ask the chop shop to hook you up when you have a couple of ideas. I think that it would be hard to really tell what an original paint scheme would look like otherwise…

In high school my buddy had a 68 coupe that was olive green w/flat black strips running back from the double rear facing scoops at the front of the hood. That was a beautiful car. 302. We always thought it was a "Calfornia Special" until we actually saw one in VA.

I'm doin a old school/new school mix. I have 04GT and I'm doin a old school stripe like what is on the old GT500 in black then painting the whole car red candy. So silver with a black stripe down the door. Then Red Candy. Also it's not goin to say GT500 it's goin to say 4.6 V8
