    I've got a paint scheme in mind based on the Stallion that is pictured below. I wonder how it would look if the black were a dark purple on the top only and no black on the bottom?? I really like the 2-tone look I've seen on other cars done this way!! Can anybody help???
    Thanks!!

    kind of rough but it gets the idea across. Im not sure of the exact purple you are looking for.

    Could someone photo shop a picture of my car? If you could just to away with the side trim and stripes and tint the windows. Maybe do another one just like that one but also black out the trim with the exception of the bumpers and throw some true fire on it. :cool:

    Here is no side trim, no stripe and tinted windows:

    No trim, no stripe, tinted windows, blacked out trim, true fire (not sure if that's what you had in mind, but :huh:):

    Hope this gives you some sort of idea.

    I'm now the proud owner of a 74 maverick!!!

    Personally I don't think it would look that good, but you need to do what you think is best. This is your car and nobody can tell you what color or colors to paint it. As long as you like it then go for it.. :thumbs2: I'm having the same problem. I have a lot of great ideas for my car but everybody keeps saying no...
