Looks great. I may have to steal that color for my Cutlass when I paint the car in 2020....hahaha

That color is sweet, can you tell me what it is?

It's 2010 Ford Sterling Grey Metallic. I saw it on a Shelby GT500 and fell in love with it. It's such a great color because the metallic is so deep and rich. I couldn't be happier with how the paint came out!

That looks Sweet! I love it, nice work. Is it a pistol grip shifter? My buddy had a purple 70 Road Runner. I used to love to drive it with the pistol grip. Very nice.

Nice satellite! What kind of wheels are those and what size?

Gonna have to keep an eye on this build, keep up the good work!

Thanks for the compliment......the pictures do not do the car justice. I was floored when I went to the shop after the paint was put on. It is truly stunning.

The wheels are Boss 338 by American Racing. They are 18x9.5 (backspace 5") in the back and 18x8 (backspace 4.5") up front.

Not a pistol grip shifter..........yet.

Depending on which direction I go with the car depends on what kind of shifter it will have. I'm considering two options at this point:

Dropping in a crate Hemi in which case it will have a pistol grip

or

I might want to get my hands on a 1st Gen Viper motor and transmission.

Haven't decided yet, so the 383 she has now will do just fine for the time being.
