4.6,

Love that hood. I would have liked to have got that one butt I wouldn't turn loose of the mojo. Is that the one from SunCoast? SWEEEET

Oh your paint is awsome....I am considering similar with a blue (dark or lighter)...deffinately metallic. Or, since my hood resembles the 70 era mach-1/Boss Stangs, I's also considered a theme truck. The d*&% light bulb in my head keeps blinking off and on Truck running rich now for some reason so, motor first.

CDB

Why was yours so expensive?


The local paint shop didnt want that much to paint my new car. They wanted almost $8500 to paint my old bronco. Now that is expensive.

black top with silver bottom, black top with white bottom, red top with black bottom, black top with yellow bottom, red top silver bottom, I think those combos would look sweet.
