Re: COUPE PAINT COLORS & CODES


I have listed in file "ascMcLaren Colors.txt" in the "files" section:

7N > Dark Shadow Blue Metallic of 1987 & 1988 Mustang

This was from one of your previous posts that I had put in the files
section. Is this also coupe color because you didn't list it in your
last post?

I put the extra color info in the "ascMcLaren Colors.txt" file and
the striping info in the "ascMcLaren Coupe Stripes and Logos.txt"
file. Both are located in the files section. I made sure I added
in all the interesting tidbits that weren't there already.
