owenkelley Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 So what exactly is "Valencia" ? My dealer says he thinks it's Orange, but Shelby said that the Yellow car looks great. If it is Yellow, or Orange for that matter, I can't believe Black stripes are not an option! I'm having a hard time deciding color too, since Dark Green is not an option. I'm thinking either Vista Blue & White or White and Blue. I'm half tempted to wait and see what '08 has to offer, but I don't know if I can wait that long!

Valencia Orange is the color in honor and was used on the Mustangs in Trans Am series from the 70's. I am all about it and going to order it! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmech Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I also wanted a dark green, but now I'll have some other hard choices to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all about it and going to order it! :D I was hoping it was going to Orange too, but it's not. CLICK HEREand scrool down to Exterior - Paint/Stipe. Valencia is Yellow Clearcoat. Anyone else missing Windveil Blue? Windveil with Performance White sripes looks sharp IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owenkelley Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Well if Valencia is a Bright Yellow then that may be an option too. I would have to have Black stripes painted on, that would look great! I too miss Windveil Blue, it would look great with White Lemans stripes. It is very similar to Brittany Blue from 1967, and those cars with White Lemans stripes were my favorite oof the 67 GT500's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCobra Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Looking for examples of Alloy, Tungsten Grey. I assume Torch Red is what the've been showing all along. Valencia is yellow. And I also can't believe the're not offering black stripes!!! KingCobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atmorrisjr Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Anybody know where you can go to look at these particular colors? I was really hoping for Black/Gold combo like my 66...oh well. LOVE 3/4 of the car....the back sucks though. Totally plain Jane. Uninspired.

KingCobra Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Id be alot happier with the offset SHELBY if they'd balance it out with GT500 on the other side, and I think I am going to try to order another set of SHELBY letters for the brow of the hood like the originals.

DutchGT500 Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I thought the Valencia color would be the same as the GTR and Ford GTX1. Orangy and with black stripes would be perfect. Latest is that it is more bright yellow. Pity, no black stripes but if we complain maybe they change the palette of stripe colors available.

Fastbackman Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Everything I've been told is that valencia will look like this. This car definitely looked more yellow to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCobra Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Maybe he's right. The only Yellow I've seen before that is this one, and I definately don't know how you can call that Valencia? KingCobra. AND I DEFINATELY AGREE PLEASE GIVE US BLACK STRIPES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT BLACK STRIPES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KingCobra.

DutchGT500 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 In another post about black stripes mrsuds said some sensing words. (quote) Black vinyl stripes will not last long in direct sun. I can see the glue heating up and flying up onto the windshield.. It would take only 1 lawsuit to start a class action suit. plus Ford really can't afford the hassle. (end quote) I have a 69 Mach 1 with the painted black hood and it gets awfully hot in summer. You can bake an egg on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
