So last summer I bought a 1970 Mustang convertible to drive during the first half of summer and then sell. Had a blowout that took out the passenger rear quarter so I had to replace the quarter and then decided to repaint the car. Here are some pics of the sanding. I have been doing it and the car had 9 coats of paint on it. 9 COATS! Yeah, that was fun.

I am open to suggestions on paint colors. I am partial to blues, but I could use some help on color. Not going to go crazy with this car, just make it a clean driver.

I am having Bristolautobody.com paint the car, the same people that did my 69 fastback.

If you're partial to blue, how about this... Grabber Blue (http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forums/attachments/classic-talk/7325d1113504720-i-need-pic-1970-grabber-blue-mach1-1970-ford-boss-302_1.jpg)
