Poking the minds of the H.A.M.B.

Just curious...

Does anyone remember the thread about a custom T-brid, that was painted to mimic that of Stainless Steel? I am told that there was a vast discussion regarding the paint, and I am hoping to do a little research into it for a possible color choice on a project.

I have tried in vain to find this thread, but have come up empty handed.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Yep, there are a few threads on here regarding it. Search GNRS where it debute in Jan. On that post there is a link to the build. The car was also at the Detroit Autorama this past weekend. What a beauty!

There was a discussion about the paint on this thread from the NSRA event in York, PA. At the bottom of the first page there are photos of a car that showed up painted in this stuff.

Didnt ford make a t bird out of SS around '60??

 

Why yes they did, good memory

 

A friend of mine here in Texas is starting to provide this paint process as a service, I don't know anything about it, but I think it requires some special equipment.

If anyone if interested let me know and I'll get you his contact info.
