Wow! Congrats Tread! Give us lots of pics! 
I went down to Maaco and looked at a sample of their "Rangoon Red," and it wasn't even close! Too dark, kind of like an old brick!
They then suggested, "Well, why don't we paint it the same color (RaceRed) as your 2011?
I had considered doing just that, so I said OK!
The owner of Mid Cities Mustangs wants to put me in next years Yellow Rose show with both my cars side by side. We'll have to see if my 65 comes out good enough for that......
They've started painting some of my parts, and the door jambs, etc. Here the link to my online album, and a couple of samples.

Hey, that means you should get it today! Congrats in advance! Lots of pics please!
Speaking of which, I went over to see my car today since they got done with the actual painting itself. I had a little bit of worry since a pic they sent me seemed to show it as being ORANGE! Errr!
But, that must have been the camera since it looked good when I got there. They will wet sand it after the paint has cured for 48 hours to get the orange peal out. I should have it by next week! WOOT!

Yep, it should be here today and my camera will be there too! Hopefully I'll be awake since I have to try and de-mod it starting now. Not sure how far I'm gonna get with it though! I'm sleepy!
That paint on the 65 looks good!

Here's a couple cell phone pics to tide y'all over. It was too dark for decent pics by the time we were done with the paperwork. I took these before taking it out for a test drive.
Ghost- I didn't get the opportunity to remove the flows. Sorry! As a matter of fact, All I was able to keep were the wheels/tires.
