Curtis, I have been following this discretely and just wanted to help out like the rest of the guys! I say lighter....

Either one will look great. With the attention to detail Jim has given this thing and the insanely cool parts you have going into it, it is destined to be bad ass!
With the attention to detail that Jim has given the car, I'd like to pick something that won't mask that. Thanks for following along Bud.

That actually crossed my mind. More so Black with White Z28 stripes. That lasted about 12.6 seconds. Way to hard to take car of and keep looking good.

This is exactly what I've been thinking. At the end of the day it's all about balance.

So here is the lighter one. Silver Sand Metallic


The darker is Luxe Metallic. Yup....both Lincoln colors.


Doesn't look like a huge difference in the pictures, but seeing them side by side in the same light you really see it. The Silver Sand shows a bit of tan-ish tint to it in the right light. And the Luxe really changes in the bright light looking awesome, but it drops off and looks blah in the shade or on an over cast day.

I have a few more in mind, but these are the starters.
