FYI - that extra bit of white on the quarter panel was painted to make all the white on the side of the car resemble the shape of the state of Oklahoma. Get it?

This is true on the paint scheme for Ok HP cars even the cruisers have the same paint scheme. Its the shape of the state.Always has been.
My opinion is restore the car right and paint it just like the pictures. By not doing it right your not doing the car justice and your killing the value of the car. OK HP SSPs are rare and by going off the grid you will just have another Mustang....My thoughts only just thought Id share. Do what you want to its your car and Good Luck!
