SOmethin Bout a candy green merc with Gold that does it for me!!!! This is one of my all time favorites!!!!
Jesse James' Mercury and Glassguy's old Merc both have perfect scallop jobs. I'm a big fan of Winfield's fades, if I had to pick a favorite, it would be D'Agostino's '56 Lincoln.
Tough tough question! I've been looking at....analyzing....brainstorming paintjobs for about 40 years. probably tens of thousands of jobs. I've seen some great efforts, but don't have a favorite choice. Well, I would have to say that a deep candy red would be my choice as best all-time color. It would have graphics that flow with the bodywork. Good contrast and enough complexity to keep it from looking amateurish. It would have classic elements in the design, which also produce a feeling of value......but the color combo and part of the graphics would have to be a little "edgy"and unusual, so it does not get lost in a sea of great paint jobs.
I always had a thing for Blues...Wild looking Blue always looked good, and this will be another vote for KIRK!s Starliner.
i think you earned that one Kirk.....i have a lot of faves as such because i like the different styles out there but your car ranks up there with the best in my book.
