        That is a beautiful red. What color is it. What year is your car?

          It is a 60 and the color is Flame Red over grey primer.Here are a couple more I took after installing some chrome.I am waiting for some parts before I can install the bumpers.

              That looks like a great paint job and being flaming red, will catch many heads turning going down the road. It will no doubt be enhanced once the grill and bumpers are reinstalled.What colour is the interior as I see the white steering wheel on your pix??

                This pic will give you an idea,just finished installing seat belts.Now I need to figure out what pattern the carpet goes in.I think I need to glue in the side and rear panels,then lay the floor ones.Just not sure if the front overlaps the rear or vise versa.Oh well maybe someone can tell me.George "Big Red Bird "60HT

                    I like it !!!!!!!! Red is a good color for this car. If I had the time/$$$$$ my conv would be red w/white top & red & white interior. The two tone just sets it off.
                    I like your tire size too . . . Beefy !!!!

                    You get all the chrome on there, she'll be sweet !!!!

                      Red

                      Boy, does that look familiar. I changed my 1st '59 from Hickory Tan (yuk) to Brandywine Red. Was awesome.

                            TChicken:

                            When you had yours painted, how much chrome did they have to remove? Did they do it, or did you?

                              Bart I removed all the chrome except those around the side windows.The hardest part was the roof line and side T-Bird pieces.You have to loosen the headliner to get at the nuts.And I mumbles some bad words trying to line up the front bumper by myself.But all in all it was not to bad,and of course a labor (or labour of you speak Dano talk) of love.LOL
