I think chevy comp orange would look sweet on an fb. btw frigidmonkey congrats on the new car. I almost bought that gsl about a year ago but decided to hold out for an se. I wasn't too crazy about the colors either but you have to say the paint is in darn good shape. Im also glad he brought your old vert into our family of cars.

Go with hugger orange W/ tuxido(sp) black stripes. Sorry, I'm still wanting a 69 SS 396.

Hugger orange would be a good color.

Grassroots Motorsports (www.grmotorsports.com) has an orange 1st gen racer in the latest issue.
It's not on the web page though and I haven't read the article.
I got as far as reading the slogan on the back of the car ("All your race are belong to Russ" under a Nintendo sticker) and had to put it down to do other stuff.

I'll try to scan the pics tonight.

I have the 4 page article of Russ' 7 from GRM scanned. If anyone wants to host the 4 images (~360k each) I can email them to you.

wow, that crash was so sudden and unexpected...too bad there wasn't footage of what actually happened to "The crush"'s car......

what actually happened, did he just start to slide in that corner or what? (referring to the accident video)

I already have enough orange to paint it, the same color thats on the pic of the mustang I sent
I was just hoping to see an FB in a similar shade first, oh well, I guess I'll just have to spray it and see how it looks :P
