you know a few of those paintjobs almost look like the Mystic that Ford painted the Cobra's... you know the Mustangs that changed color. Kind of cool for a factory paint job....
Yup, that is a lot like what they used on those 'stangs. The Chromaflair pigments have been used on a few cars straight from the factory. One of the nice things about them is that you can get one of their styles, and it can be mixed with another paint to give a more subtle effect. I'd love to have my '89 with a shift/fade from its regular black to a dark blue, but the regular black is nice too.

The Mustangs used BASF's paint for those schemes.
The colorshifting Cobras used the same exact paint that I have.



Winger, I bought my car painted like this from a guy who got the paint for really cheap, so I didn't feel the cost, but it's usually in the neighborhood of 5 grand for a whole car. I'll know soon enough...mine needs a repaint.

Do you do bodywork too? I need new fenders, a new hood (mine is steel), a new sunroof, rust on the doors and quarter panels fixed, and a new floor pan. Is that part of the $500 deal? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Actually, when I am ready to get it painted, I am going to call the guy I bought it from and see if I can get more paint for cheap....he has a good relationship with BASF.

That includes paint. I'll pick up purple, blue, and green krylon.http://www.plauder-smilies.com/peepwall.gif

LMAO...you forgot the gold, red, orange, aqua, and a few other colors that I have. Actually, I think one of the companies that makes touch-up paint makes a colorshifting version...I'll have to check it out.

I can give you a "chamelion" paint job for a small storage fee. If your car gets hit by my sprinklers long enough you'll get a nice rainbow color.

Gotta love city water. The water here is so hard it leaves white spots all over the car.

The water from the sprinklers is well water. It may be the iron that does it.
