Default Stang stripped again...

Hi all!
Gettin really good at stripping paint [:@] Spent the last 2 days stripping the paint off the the Stang again. After all the problems I had with the paint I picked the only option was to take it all off. I was going to paint it Rangoon red. After the Mustang rally we had here a couple of weeks ago all I saw was red Stangs. I am leaning towards Ivy Green now. It will also look good with my black Pony interior. I hope to drive the resto mod GT vert by end of July. I will post pics on my progress.

Red, black and yellow are the popular colors, and especially the reds. Although I own a red 03 Mach, I agree that you should pick another color like the green. A real dark green would by my choice for a green.

got any pics of it before and after you stripped the paint off it? just interested to see what it looked like painted and looks like stripped.


+1 to Soaring. a dark green would work very well. IMO.

Im not sure if we are talking about the same green, what year? My dad has a 70 Mach 1 with (ivy green?) its VERY dark, looks BEAUTIFUL in the light, but at night and stuff it looks almost black. (we call her poison ivy!)
I agree with the other guys, dark green's a winner in my book.

Thx for the replys and opinions!
I could not find the pic of the Stang in the incorrect Rangoon red. You can find in a eariler post of mine after I had the Stang painted. Look for "My car is now Rangoon Red"
Attatched is the Stang in all of its bare beauty again.
