Lets posts Picture(s) of you Car here with the following info if possible please.
This info will be very important for the new builders to make a decision on what color(s) they would like to paint their car with. Let's be helpful to our fellow builders.

Let's try and enter the following info:
base color/code:
trim color/code:
wheels and tires:
who painted the car:
other body mods made:

you can upload your images into FFCars here:
http://www.ffcars.com/photopost/uploadphoto.php
(you must be logged into FFCars.com)
and you can upload images of your Car there, select the correct Category for your Car (Factory Five Roadster) will be the most common, enter all the info on the Car and colors in the Description for the Photo (if you enter more than one image, it will be better if you make a Notepad file with all the info on the car and just copy it and paste.

I have administrative powers in the Gallery as well, I can edit and delete any image you want me to.

Let's do it !

I will transfer some of the old images in here as well.

Thanks

Sergio

Patriot Blue, Performance White Stripes

Standard Chrysler Corp Patriot Blue Metallic with Performance White Stripes painted by a local painter.

The ride height needed to be adjusted at the time of the photo. Wheels are from FFR but I believe the Manufacturer is Wheel Replicas. Tires are Sumitomo 275/45/17 and 315/35/17.

The only mod to the body is the addition of the Mini Cooper backup light.

Dupont Chroma Base/Clear 1965 Ford Guardsman Blue







Paint shot by a retired ski boat builder/painter who wanted to try his hand at a replicar. For some reason he does not want to do another.

Wheels and tires from OE wheel in Florida. Deep dish 17" Chrome Cobra R with rivets and spinners. Hankook tires, cheap but pretty grippy once they get warmed up.
