torchredmach · 03-26-2009, 04:50 PM

I hope you're having it painted "the right way".. None of that orange-peel crap from Ford.

Looks good, can't wait to see it done!! A 32V 5.4 Torch Red Mustang is my dream car

birdman941 · 03-26-2009, 04:56 PM

Me too!
It's so close now................

shame302 · 03-26-2009, 08:03 PM

Not my favorite shade of red but that car is gonna POP! "R" is gonna be one sick eye catcher.

birdman941 · 03-26-2009, 08:05 PM

Factory 04 Color is why.
Plus, Cobras should be Red

birdman941 · 03-27-2009, 11:05 AM

Bump (er)

I'm going to 'archive' this here for now. I think he's tired of some of the other 'stuff' from some of the ususal suspects.
