Candy Raspberry with real 24 Karat Gold Flake
This is my friend Hink's 1965 Mustang Fastback with a Candy Raspberry, 24 Karat Gold Flake finish that cost over $20,000.00 at the time he had the car painted.
I did my best to capture the gold reflections in the finish, which you'll see below...
If you look around the source of light reflecting onto the paint you can see a gold color, that's the flake. I found it kind of hard to capture really well.
Here's a close up cropped out of the lower right hand corner of the above picture...
Here's how my camera shows Candy Raspberry Paint!
Before Shots
Look closely at the car, while it looks great we're going to remove all the fine swirls and put a true show car finish on this car and when I post the "After" shots compared to these you're going to see the gloss completely maxed out.
The overhead hood shot...
The low down, front grill shot...
The Fastback models have the really cool look to them...
Inside Swirl Shot

Here's the flash my camera lighting up the paint to show the swirls inside the studio, the finish, as nice as it is, is still only in category #3 in my list of paint condition categories.
Here's how the paint looks outside in bright, overhead sunlight...
This is a really sweet 1965 Mustang Fastback with a very nice paint job but here at Autogeek we're going to take it to its maximum potential.
