Damn dude! I wasn't personnaly attacking your ride. Maybe an extra prozac, or an occasional toke would be in order? Just Kiddin, man. My point was, that if they were gonna go all out on the project, you think they would go all GM, or at least I would.
Peace
Oh and Ford 9's are definitley tops

Project Copperhead????

A buddy of mine suggested a copper/bronze color for the 72 I am restoring and after seeing the pictures of Project Copperhead I have decided to go with the same color. We will be using Glazurit paint made by BASF rather than House of Kolors paint that would cost more than the rest of the truck. That is a slick and awesome color, IMO.

after a while you will start to feel beter........you will come to realize that your project is just a good as everbody elses....


9 out of 10 personalities agree that working on your own project is far better that watching someone else work on a company funded one.

The 10th one is on the phone trying to sell Bill Gates a web based version of Jessie James' show.........called Monster Computer......

No! We don't know where he got the Phone #, Anyone got Bail Money....you know just in case........
AMEN! very well said ludwig (9 out of 10 aint bad either!) crazyL

I have a '96 Ford Taurus that is an awesome forest green color. I've been seriously considering getting the code for the paint and use it for my '72 'burb. Nothing wrong with Ford colors... just the ford underneath!

It's nice to have the personalities back...

Monster computer... sounds like what I do everyday...

Here take the CD drive & power supply out of this old one and put it in this new one. Steal it's ram too... to make it faster!

Take off all the resistors from the motherboard. Resistors just slow down the electricity...

I going with almost the same color but without the mettalic. But I think the color first came on a rice burner, before ford started using it.
