Default Ready for paint!!! Ideas?

I'm taking the Coupe to the paint shop Sunday for the fabrication and paint (finally). I found a guy that does killer work, and is a Stanger himself. [Those of you who were at Deming Park with me for the Stangers meet might remember a guy by the name of Tony that had the black and yellow 84 GT and the blue and white Cobra replica that did his own paint work. He's the guy doing this car for me!]

The engine compartment has been stripped and everything that isn't a necessary engine compartment item is being deleted or moved. Every bolt, screw, and access hole is being welded and smoothed.

I have changed my mind a few times on the color of the car, and I think my wife has finally convinced me to get a bit flashy with the car. I was thinking of painting the top 1/3 charcoal gray or black, and the bottom 2/3 House of Kolors tangerine, with some small graphical stripe seperating the two colors.

What do ya think? (see attachment)
