So all you've guys have been a huge help! I couldn't thank you enough, it's almost like being in school for this stuff. I've learned so much about the history and car itself, along with a lot of mechanical issue's i've had, I haven't uploaded any pictures at all, and I don't have any good ones yet, but this is a little display of what I've got going for me.






I appreciate every input, opinion, and facts all you guys give me! Thank you!

Do you guys have any color options? I'm stuck between going white, since the headliner is a cream color It just needs some cleaning, or

-Olive Green
-Dark Teal
-Pastel Green

I would suggest white. Looking good btw and appears to be pretty solid.

I'd stick with white also. Your interior is already white so it'll save you a bit just repainting the outside. If you are looking to change it, I'd point you to another stock color for the year. Not that you are looking to sell it right away, but stock colors quite often have the highest resale value.

Want something eye catching with a cool 70's look, you can't go wrong with Ravenna Green!

Ugh, Jeffery, hahaha i'm not to sure I dig that color to much.

teal would contrast the cream interior nicely, but have you thought about a beige color? Sahara beige or savannah beige would probably look nice

Sahara Beige


savannah Beige


not quite white, but provides a good compliment to the interior

I'm still debating whether I want to get it gloss or not gloss it. The Savannah Beige is clean, and the Sahara Beige is pretty awesome as well. When the time is near, I'll put more thought into it. Right now I have alot of Mechanical issues i need to fix before starting on the appearance.

Great color. Looks like it would be fairly easy to keep clean as well.
