        Paint it red, and delete the vinyl top. Also, BIG flakes of metalflake in the paint would look HOT!

        Don't forget to paint the jambs too.

            Too bad about the accident. Shit happens, right?
            I wish I had never actually painted my car. This sounds crazy, but I wish that the body was all hodge podged and shit, so I wouldn't have to worry about it as much. The body is far from perfect, yet I constantly worry about door dings and such. I wish I left the peeling clear blue metallic on there. I really like the beater look, although I ;d leave nice shiny wheels, and a clean interior.

            Since you are going to paint it, paint it red! It will match my box. I really wish I'd painted mine white though... white cars with blue interiro are very nice.

            Those pushrods are sweet too. Nice souvenirs. I have seen worse though; a certain 350 Olds' I had been driving had some interesting shaped push rods; I would call them art. My advice to people out there (any sane person would know this); do not put gas that is 5 years old in a car. It is pure varnish, and if you're lucky it may stick the valves, and then bend the pushrods...hmmmmm. What else were we going to do with the old gas?

              Yea if my car was all beat up lookin then i wouldn't have cared as much but eh, gets me off my ass and workin on it. Even with those push rods bent like that the car still ran but you had to hold the gas to the floor to start it and then it would knock like shit. Hit your bumper with a hammer thats what my motor sounded like.

                Took a few more pictures last weekend. This one isn't the best but its a pic I took when I put my cherry bombs on.

                These pics i took while I was out driving around.



                My car can lay a better patch of rubber than that but I didn't lay into it as much cuz I had fuck all for tire left.

                Here are a couple pics of my dads 2000 Crown Vic that he bought from the Michigan State police auction.

                    One must love a one legger.

                    MV84, like the whale body. The Michigan State police have a nice color going on there.
                    Nice burn, even if its only an open diff.

                          Not sure I like a blue car with red interior.

                            Apparently I was smoking some crack or something back in July because I saw this thread and I thought I replied, but for whatever reason I didn't. Anyways, your CV looks friggin awesome mang!!!! I like the Mark VII wheels. With them you can go in so many directions with the look of the car. IMO, paint it black. I know it is hard to maintain, but I haven't seen a black ext and red interior that I didn't like.

                              I have a red car with a blue interior... now it has gray seats though.

                              Dark blue with red int. doesn't look that bad. I saw it on a hot rod one time; was unusual, yet I liked it.
