Body, Paint & Sealers / Mach one hood stripes
« Last post by DaveF on Today at 11:19:56 AM »I?m getting ready to paint the hood stripes on my Mach One. I am having difficulty figuring out what type of paint to use. My old stripes were matte black, with some notable texture. Is there someone that can let me know how to make authentic stripes. If you recommend products, please be specific. I would appreciate exact paint code numbers if possible. Thanks

General Discussion / Thank You
« Last post by ninedrvr on Today at 10:47:45 AM »I restored / modified this car to an extremely high standard as a 'life experience' for the lack of a better term. Originally a lime gold 302-2V auto convertible with dark ivy gold standard interior. I couldn't bring myself to restore the car to an 'as delivered' condition especially since the original engine and transmission were long gone.
Once I made the determination to go GT500 clone, I needed some references to go by. This website was the best reference I had during the build. I learned more here than anywhere else. Questions I couldn't find answers to by going through old posts were answered one at a time by many contributors but especially Bob Gaines and Jeff Speegle.
I found I liked looking at the car better than driving it so I sold it very recently. Thanks to all that helped.

1968 Mustang / Re: 1968 fastback seats
« Last post by ruppstang on Today at 08:40:38 AM »Fun facts
Comfortweave was not used on convertibles (including Mustangs)
GT500 KRs fastbacks with black interiors got the comfortweave
There was no saddle comfortweave in Shelbys
Some 68 GT 350 got comfortweave too.
