Again , I call how I see it !!! Sorry to offend your thin skin !!!! Do you need a hug poopy ?????? :icon_smile_big:

Larry, I swear the only reason you're on this board is to sell your parts.    Your only contributions are "for sale" ads, and "this car sucks" posts.     You're a talented fabricator, but you come across as a real knob online.   Just calling it as I see it.    

You spoke too soon....an hour later and poof

Actually, the more I look at the orange Daytona, the more I like it....except for the hood scoop.  :scratchchin:

Thanks for being truthful and letting us know what your ulterior/true motive is.  Congratulations Larry, you've just marginalized yourself.

Larry, but why do you seem to feel the need to slam a car that someone's worked very hard on at one time or another..... It had nothing to do with the topic.. Some times it takes more coconuts to bite one's tongue, it's called respect.

bashing aside, i LOVE old psychedelic paint schemes, but can't stand to see a freshly restored car painted the wrong color... 


a friend of mine just looked at a '71 cuda hemi convertible clone.  it was an original GY3 curious yellow car, and they painted it pink.  fine, some people don't like green on green, but this was already a high impact color! 



then again, if it was done in 1978, i'd be all for it.   not that i have issues or anything...

I'm close on what Doug just said. But then again I don't like many cars at all that have a color change period. Even if its a drab color, and yeah my opinion of a drab color  is just an opinion. I've always been told that if I want a car in a certain color, often all it requires is a little more searching and you can find one that came that way. No need to paint a green car red, or a blue car black, just look a little longer and you'll find one that came factory in the color desired. Often that is, not always. With the aero cars included, there isn't many colors that are limited to less than 10 or so cars.

I didn't realize I would  :stirthepot: by asking about this certain Daytona. Wow, comes to mind, being nice,ha-ha. I like the car,it has that 70's look about it,but the hood scoop isn't my forte, oh well. I do want to know also, is it a factory color orange-ish red or?
Thanks Mark
Hey, you can hate the game but don't hate the player.

Is the color Rust olem brown ?

Mark, if you're referring to Del F's Daytona with the white top and stripe with 440, I believe it's V2 or close to R4. I have some old pics, I'll see if I can get one.. Those pictures were taken a long time ago.. Last time I saw Del's car was about '90....  And no, it's not Rust olem brown.

Except for our purple one here....I took a 1/18th Ertl diecast Daytona apart and repainted it purple, put it back together, and showed Mrs. Wing what it would look like all done....she liked it, so we did it....and ever since then, it's been her car. She just lets me work on it and drive it once in a while.

I believe Del's car was V2, although it might have been a non original color when it had the vinyl top.  Here is a new scan of the Bastrop meet picture in the mid 1980s and a later picture after the Daytona was repainted and the vinyl top deleted... Like I said, he drove it!  :2thumbs:

It's too bad they didn't offer FC7 on the Birds. This car looks really good. The white accents on the nose are ok, but I'm not sold on them.

--as is, but the correct red, add black, and sub in my favorite blue in '70.  if you must, add in moulin rouge and plum crazy.  too bad sassy grass green wasn't available early enough--i MUCH prefer that to limelight--the metallic adds so much depth.


then again, it would be REALLY cool if the colors were wide open like daytonas!  imagine rolling around in a pebble beige, gold or ice blue 'bird--and open interior colors.  they are my favorite cars ever, bar none, but compared to the weird combos you see with daytonas, superbirds are boring.  since the backlights were done in house, it would have been even easier to install any interior color in the catalogue--

And those FK 5 burnt orange ones. like the one Dave Jones /Mason Dixon had slipped through.As reported in a old newsletter says they misread EK2 upside down
