I'd say we need to use a cloth Robbins top that matches the color of the top half of the body (2 tone) and has a glass window and headliner. That package will run about $1,400.

 

:scratch: What about some of theCarbon Fiber materials? Top?????????? :scratch:

Maybe some interior use too?

 

That sounds cool. A cloth top matching the grey in the two tone is exactly what I'm seeing for this project.

It's my personal opinion that fake carbon fiber is lame. The real deal is good simply because it is a space age material that is light, strong, and has a cool look. Fake carbon fiber (especially on something soft like vinyl) goes in the same category as neon and exhaust tips with LEDs in them. That, and I don't know how I'd ever photochop carbon fiber.

 

OK here goes to wrap it up:

Two tone paint. Top should be some form of charcoal or gun grey (I like the Sterling gray color) search eBay cars for that factory color. The other tone should be (if this is crazy let me know) a modern form of a Grabber color that came on the Bosses... perhaps a spin on one of the Orange shades? Or maybe a yellow? I'd like to get a heritage color feel here somehow.

For the body:

- Conv't top to match color
- Stock metal hood
- Glass painted bumpers
- inset tail lights ala FFF
- endcaps and decklid with the Sportsroof style "ducktail" not a drastic Shelby tail.
- Shave all emblems... except for a custom billet on fender and tail TBD
- Upgraded fuel door (who had that link to a neat one recently?)
- Billet grill
- Driving lights like Cloney mentioned
- Similar front vallence to the FFF without the chin spoiler
- Side exhaust in front of tires, no cutouts in rear valence
- "Upper" Boss 429 scoop on quarter... lower scoop filled/smoothed.
- headlights molded to front fenders
- charcoal/grey top color to be carried to engine bay
- modern side mirrors color matched to body
- PT Cruiser door handles
- no antennae (hidden unit under dash)

 

sounds great, no a little chop would clarify things nicely, and oh what about rims??

 

Working on a chop....

 

very very nice, how about using the 69-70 mach 1 rear quarter panels with the scoop, like the 429's

 

oh and how about this color for the bottom, that would look nice.
