    :huh:I've been looking at the pics of Stallions here and I'm planning to use this paint scheme but only the top portion. Did all the Stallions have window,windshield and rear glass trim painted to match or did some leave the stainless unpainted?? If so, what did the unpainted look like?? All my trim is in perfect condition(except boomerangs of course)and I kinda hate to see this stuff get painted over but will if it helps the look I'm going for. Any pics of either would be great!! Thanks for the help!!:thumbs2:

    The Stallion was part of a very minor styling excercise in the 70's aiming towards a blackout look. All window trim was blacked out. Bumpers and aluminum wheels were the only shiny stuff other than the center body color. But, it is your car and why not do what you like with it, unless of course you are after a correct looking Stallion clone.
    Best of luck to you!
