    its AAALLLLIIIVE! No longer a dork moblie. We took out the rear end and replaced it with a fine Granada 8 inch. I also got the Britany Spears sticker of the ash tray door that was put in by the boy (Previous owner). Hopfully tomorow I can ditch the glass packs and replace them with a pair of 40 flow masters.

    Hi Guys

    I found out that the car was not Bannana Yellow, but Lime. My dad thinks it should go Ford Poppy Red.

    I think that Lime is a bit to much!

    What do you guys think??????

    My 77 mav is what ford calls light green. It looks yellow most of the time, but under some light or certain angles there is a slight kee-lime tint to it. With the black accents that I used, I like it. Check out the thread about the magazine article on Chips car from Florida. His is a lot more lime with the black 2 tone. Looks awsome. But you paint it what you like. That is what makes it special to you. Looks like a great project. Enjoy. :drive:
