Default What Color Should I be?
It's ready for paint now, only I can't decide on what color. Right now I like black (the original color) or Indigo Blue. I can't make up my mind. Some suggestions?

Did you fill in the T-Tops on that car? or does it just look that way. I would go with a dark metallic blue. but thats me. Go with what ever makes you happy. individuality is a good thing.

That's the 3.8. It doesn't have T-Tops, only the Z does. I had a whole mess of those nasty little bubbles on the roof that went neglected for awhile. They had to get taken care.

I guess that i have never been around any 3.8's or have payed any attention. my lil sis has a Z and a friend has a WS6 and those are the only 2 f-bodys I really ever pay attention to. pretty cool to learn something tho.

Actually the only reason my 3.8 doesn't have t-tops is because I wouldn't wait another week for the right camaro. I took that one right off the lot way back when. Some 3.8's do have t-tops though.

id do black if you got the body straight enough, plus its the org color. other wise you have to paint door jams, under trunk, under hood, well not with the new hood.

It's over. Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up just getting it back to black. Chrysler black to be exact. Then on Saturday I will get the tint re-done limo and post new pictures.
