Default Re: Color change opinions

Since it's a performance model, and, if you want to "flip" it for a quick sell, then repainting it in the original color might be the best way to go. "Originality" seems to be more and more desireable as musclecar prices climb (and climb, and climb).

On the other hand, people often buy cars based on how the color affects them (see: red cars everywhere). If you chose a highly desireable, not often seen color combination then you might get that buyer who gets emotional at the impact of the car's color and drops the big $$$ on your car.

I know of what you speak. My '67 Camaro is BY with black top and interior. I think it would look fantastic in Marina Blue with a white vinyl top and white nose and side pinstripes. Oh, and Cragar S/S wheels with redlines. But that's just me.
