I am fixing up a 68' mustang and am looking for some ideas as to what color would look best. if someone could photoshop a few different colors onto it that would help alot with the decision.

this is the only picture that I have of it on my comp. here is a link to it I can't get it to load directly for some reason.

I think the older mustangs look sick in black.

Yep. Black is the only way I would go on a 68. Too many red ones already.

my problem is finding what color to use that hasn't been overused on these cars. What I was thinking about doing is going with a Dark metalic blue with metal flaking. or just repainting it the same color. could someone photoshop it dark metalic blue to give me a better idea of what it would look like that way.

Iliketogofast is right, that smoke gray or whatever color it is, is smoking! I'd keep it that color, besides it's a good color that doesn't show dirt well, although I'm sure you'll keep it clean.

If you really want to change it though a matt color would be cool, gray or black still but sometimes color ruins stuff.

matte black looks cool on most things, but IMO it just doesn't turn heads like a nice metallic with metal flake does.

More or less what kinda look are you going for a retro custom look or a classic look that has a lot of factors cause i do custom paint and can throw out alotta crazy ideas.

On the other hand, as the other guys suggested, a nice supple matte black would be cool. But that isn't for everybody.
