Thumbs up

Just my 2 cents.....
I have a '79 f-100 Custom, and mine was a drak green metal flake from the factory, and I will be taking it back to that color with a 3 stage flame job on the hood and finders, it will start out in a lime green, going into a brite yellow, and a "cool" blue on the tips of the flames, and pearl finsh topped off with 6 coats on clear coat.
So the long and short is, I went for the orange flames

if u guys watch monster garage and seen the new handicap project it is a good example of that blue with orange flames paint job. looked pretty good. but ima keep the same stock white paint with some type of stripping or go look for a cool graphic. got a place about an hour away that makes some wicked ones and havent heard a bad thing about them yet

Monster garage blue/orange flame on a Mercedies SUV. It worked.
Excellent color combo for the 79
