Not sure what you are asking. Base/clear can have orange peel. Sand with 1200-1500 and cut/buff. Seems the factory was having paint issues that day. What a shame.

i was just getting into picture taking about the time i got my stang in 2004 .. this is the only pic i have of it shortly after i bought it .. 1500 bucks in mississippi .. buiseily shoehorning the 429 in it ..

HOSS429

after i got it going i drove it in flat black for a while as i had`nt built my own shop yet .. i wanted it black to begin with but that changed when a friend got his stang done before me and his was black with white stripes ..

HOSS429

all of us are all about cars .. some not mustangs believe it or not .. i see this neat old car around now and then .. usually with a load of young kids aboard ..

kennyg

Nice 5 bay shop you built. Sure does resemble the fire station in HG!

HOSS429

i dont know what our past few county commissioners did but i know the one we currently have has built more bridges,, added more turning lanes and paved roads than any has in the past .. good work roger jones .

HOSS429

rushc66

Funny!!

kennyg

I know where that grave is and probably is the reason the road has that little kick in it right there. The big highway was built in the early 50's, before that you would take the old Huntville highway that weaved through that area or Pulaski Pike or Butler Roads to go north.

Great thread! Feel free to make one like this on Huntsville Car Scene as well.

I laid out my garagemahal today - 24' x 36' - made sure I didn't need any variance waivers or anything from Madison, so hopefully I am getting my building permit tomorrow.

next I have figure if I can run 100 amp service from my house, etc.

HOSS429

i did that with mine .. just put a 100 amp breaker in the house box .. run you some water while you`re at it ..
