Hot Rods 1932 3 window Ford paint job?????

Im building a 32 ford and I cant deside on a color to paint it. I no the color I dont want is black. Could you guys post some pictures for me. Im going with the 60's look. Most of every thing is chrome plated or polished stainless. If you guys could point me in the right direction that would help out!

 

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


Something shiney!

 

I like Comp. Orange for that G***er Look!!!

 

It's gotta be a pink fade. that would be the ****.

 

'08 Nissan/Infiniti Platinum Graphite with Mercedes Benz Satin Clear top coat.

Or, Saturn makes an Antifreeze green that looks great in satin...

 

Brigth candy green, gold or even that candy(?) orange color.

 

Two of my favorites are Tahitian red or maroon, but
I think black looks the best!

 

I like that sunset orange color- kinda retro but not

 

To be 60's looking it has to be Candyapple red or gold.
Everything was painted those colors then.
And not a one of them was painted a flat color.

 

How about ----------

 

Black is best!

 

I thought there were laws against painting a 3 window 32 anything other than black?

 

I like plaid.

 

a couple pics

 

Black does look the BEST ... IMHO



Go to Carnut and see thousands of 1932 Fords

My buddy has an early 60's style 5w painted Ford Focus blue w/a acura pearl clear...looks just like candy blue like Chili's "Little Deuce Coupe" album cover car

 

Steve Lemmon's is my favorite (this week).

 

Lots of metallics in the 60's

 

I love the candy green with heavy flake..... Thanks guys

 

I think I can offer you some help. All you have to do is change your mind.
Paint it black on black on black.

 

Go to a Mercedes dealership and look at a DARK BLUE car.

 

Have you seen Groucho's old coupe?

(I don't have a pic here at work).

p.s. Black is best.

 

Black, how can you not like Black on a 32? Well regardless, take into account the chrome and stainless you have on the car, and are you going for the 50's look or just a clean car? Some colors can make the car look short, and some will aid in making them look a tad longer and lower.

Red is cool when your the only car at a cruise. A few of the pics have some awesome colors, but some of them look neat, until you own a car with that color.

I am partial to some of the new Golds, be they the PT Cruiser or the new Ford Focus Gold, spruce them up a little to make them a deep gold. Not yellow base with gold on it, tends to look yellow. Kind of like the Orange Red, Blue Red argument. The Jaguar, Newer Mustang greens are really nice though, and never being a green car guy (realize growing up in the 70's with that pukey GM Light green eech) these are nicer.
The green you could go monochromatic, engine, trans frame everything that green. Gold would be tougher though to say what color to do the engine scheme in etc.
I know that nice deep Cobalt blue isnt real popular right now, start a trend!

BTW no Orange!
