I think it would be great on your car, Anthony.

Not a fan of blue cars? I'm open to any and all suggestions....what do you invision?

FWIW, it would look basically like this..but with no front bumper, no front spoiler and probably stock mirrors...think Red Witch! This is a rendering I had done years ago, I guess you could say I've gone full circle, color wise.

i would personally do blue over silver, but thats just me.

i also kinda think purple might look cool on a 67 or 68, but that may be a little too much.

Anthony, the car looks awesome. I am a fan of the dark metallic blue like you have chosen, but with a set of Silver ralley stripes would look killer.

I like the blue, but I am not sure if about the LT1. I had a 96 Z28 and man did it take alot of money to get thtat thing to move. I got into 12.90s but it took every bolt on I could think of. The LS1 is a better choice but if you are going with it because it is readily available then by all means, what do I know.

Tony,

Big step ahead, then it is "just a matter" of getting it back together.

Gonna be a great car.

I like the blue on the new Z06, if not that, maybe a midnight blue metallic would look nice also.

I'm sort of in the same boat since mine is ready for color within a couple of weeks. My car was originally windward blue, which is about like the blue on top of this website. So I originally wanted to maintain that to some degree.

I asked a friend who is the PPG paint rep for Minneapolis, and he said that whatever I did...don't paint it blue. I asked why, he said blue doesn't sell. No-one does blue. He knows what he's talking about, his personal bike was just featured in Hot Bike magazine and he's a big part of the local hot rod scene.

That may not help you...but it helped me.

FWIW, I love blue, my truck is blue, so this isn't meant to offend any fellow blue car owners!
