The Final color, A little lighter than calypso Coral, With Black'd Out Hood!
My torino will feature the laser strip, nicknamed Temperature. The effect is yellow fading to red, with the body color. Orange will be the final color, just dont know which shade..

Thanks to everybody who voted on a color!!! It was a tough decision but its Decided.
Through facebook and www.torinocobra.com ive decided on a color. Now they were a million of colors i could have choosen from but i wanted to narrow my choices by only choosing the colors that directly responded to the factory laser stripe. You young cats might not know what that is but no its not the chevy rally stripes going directly through the top of the entire car's body...ill leave that to the chebby fans. What i wanted to do is pay hommage to the brilliant person who designed this awsome feature of a true callout. Yes no fancy names or etchings into the body like T/A or R/T or even 442 or Boss, But something a million times more classy and can grab your attention even at the darkest hour. Lady's And gentlemen i present to you The Lazer Stripe.

The updates Haven't been consistent due to lack of funds
Everybody knows even a mild restoration takes more money than time, because you find yourself sitting around with the time and no money. Well thats the situation im in lol...So be expecting a 3rd coat fo primer, and the final coat of epoxy primer to give me that smoothness im trying to acheve.
List of things i have to get before that can happen.
1. 1-Gallon of primer sealer
2. 1-Gallon of epoxy primer
3. A new paint gun, prob going with sata or du buis... i think thats how its spelled.
4. 2 gallons of undecided paint, but more than likely orange.
5. 1 qt of flat black paint, texured.
6. Thinner, Hardner, And one gallon of clear coat.
