Hi all,
Going through some photos and i found the photo that made me think about doing an FC up. This was my dads car when he was about 21 years old, in the pic it has just come from the spray painters, the clour is 'Candyapple Red' which is the clour i am going to do mine but with a pearl white flash down the side and all the chrome. I'll see if i can find a photo of this car when it was original.

Leigh,
That's a nice looker. It also looks to me as if the bonnet emblem has been moved back slightly. Still a nice looker.
Cheers Rusty

Hi Leigh,
It looks from the photo that it wasn't a true Candy Apple Red (Silver or Gold base, translucent red over the top) but the Ford colour Candy Apple Red. I had an XW that was this colour and the paint code for it was "G" if you need it

Hey Leigh
It's cool to have pics of the ol' mans FC.
It sure looks a lot purdier in the first pic.
Thanks for sharing.
