What is the sickest color for my 67 RS protouring
 
Hi guys so looking for some feed back on painting my 67 Camaro Rs
this car has the best of the best. But since I am running a 496 stroked
with a F2 procharger I have to run a 4" cowl hood. Looking for the sickest paint
color that will make peoples jaw drop. Any ideas ????

Well.....Since you have the best of the best, big block, procharger, AND a 4" cowl I would definitely have to go with canary yellow and candy purple real flames.

That would really make the jaws drop

But hey....Just one man's opinion

Jason!!! :hello: :cheers:

Paint is such a personal preference that it's tough to recommend. Check out some of Aston Martin's colorways as they have some that really pop in a tasteful way.

Tough to answer that question if you want jaw dropping it will have to be bright like a red, yellow, orange or blue. Something along those lines.

What's your personality? Do you want to be the center of attention, or sneak in under the radar?

That color is killer for sure, My wife saw a 51 chevy truck that color at a carshow a few years ago. I ask what color for our car and she always says that. I am not to crazy about it for the fact of repairs. Rock chips scratches and such. I may be outvoted to go a color similar to that.

Either gold with big bass boat metal flake or chromalusion.

Click on the links in my sig my car is candy red over a silver base with black stripes. It's a striking color to see in person I personally love it.

Red
 
Ryan, your car is stunning, congrats on a GREAT job. What colour of red is that exactly? There are so many to choose, and the samples are very difficult to get an accurate representation of ... Did you use an HOK paint ?

Btw, hope its warmer over there than here ... WOW cold :confused18:
Cheers
Steve

My paint is actually candy red from BASF Glasurit. It's over a silver base I believe is called Orion silver. Candy is a transparent paint so the more coats you lay down the darker it gets and it's near impossible to match so be careful if the car gets smashed or vandalized.

Dupont Hot Hues Razzelin Red. Saw this color at a car show last year on a 68. It was completely over the top and the best color there in my opinion. Actually looks more burgundy than red and goes killer with black.
