Paint?

Hey guys,

Well, I just got another '81 Z28, but instead of setting it up for racing, like we have the other one, I think I'm going to do a (almost) stock restore with a few customizations such as paint and rims and whatnot. The car is currently a tan color, but it's not a very flattering paint job, with tan interior. I've been looking for paint options that might go well with the interior. Since I don't want it to be a flat color, I've decided that the paint is something I'm definately going to splurge on. I've thought about several options from white with gold specs to a chameleon paint job using champagne, tan, bronze, and a few other similar colors (I don't mean like the tacky jobs that use purple, green, and red). Just looking for a few more ideas to sort through before I start restoring it.

Thanks.

If I were to splurge on a paint job, I'd have to put some ghost flames on it on the front and down the sides..to me that would be too cool...I've seen some cars with Dupont Chrome Illusion piant jobs,now thats some wild stuff....
