Well after having this car for 6 years I finally had time to get the body ready for paint. I just never had the time after I got my 2001 SS to work on this car. So I was thinking of a few colors, what ever color I go with I am also going to paint my ralley rims the same color. I have the chrome rings and caps I am going to put on after.

1. Electron blue maybe, but it might just look better on newer cars?

2. A color simular to a candy red, cant go candy since this will be driven 4 days a week and dont want to have to worry about people scratching the paint.

let me know what color you think would look nice on this car

 

I've seen one around town here that's in a Sebring Silver just like GMs color and that looks cool

 

Blue.. i love blue but go with a lighter color if its a daily..

 

I like my 69 in Viper Blue. You can check it out here: www.cardomain.com/id/jonnycat

I've seen that car in Sunset Orange, and it looks great too. I'd think twice about having the centers of your rallye's painted body color. Have them powerdered or painted black or silver. Might look alot better, but thats just my opinion. It's your car though man, so rock on!

 

red

 

I second the Sunset Orange...it's kinda reminiscent of '71 Chevelle Rally Orange...

 

Candyapple red with black stripes is classic

 

Check out the 72 Chevelle Nyle Wing painted, www.wingsautoart.com .

I'd go Indigo Blue with or without silver stripes or ghost stripes.
Amazon Green with or without gold or black stripes.

 

HUGGER ORANGE...im biased though

 

Red with black stripes

 

get with a dupont supplier and check out Boyd Coddington red-this haas no brown pigments, just pure red. Nice and bright.

 

thanks

I really like the blue so thats one color on the top of my list. I also like SOM but I wonder if I can have my friend add alittle more red to it. Or just find a red that looks like this

and do the stripes the darker color

I have seen people have black and silver ralleys and I just dont like them...to plain IMO. So I wanted to do a few things different
I might also not put stripes on the car or maybe ghost stripes. I also want to paint the white part of my SS emblems silver.

DARK AGE 53
very nice and looks like a lot of work in that Chevelle!! Is that Electron Blue?

 

How 'bout electron blue?

 

I vote for blue (like that 72 mentioned earlier) or classic red with black strips I want to rebuild a chevelle soooo bad!

 

Metallic hugger orange with pearl white racing pads. I've seen one like that, and I fell in love with it!

 

Black!

 

Thats a nice looking car.

 

in order
1) silver with black stripes
2) red with black stripes,
3) or blue like the 72 Chevelle Dark Age 53 posted,

 

Marina Blue with white stripes looks best on 71-2 malibus IMO
