Any opinions???

Also...paint color....

my top choices are

satin black
satin blue
dark factory color green (gloss)
rootbeer brown color (gloss)

so as you can see...my color choices are all over the place
The grill doesn't matter to me because I like both styles. As far as color... satin black has been over done, forget it. I've never been a fan of the dark green unless its on a british sports car and has white racing stripes. Rootbeer? I know it's kind of making a come back but I think it just looks like an old persons car color. My grandma had a huge delta 88 that was brown. Tha satin blue above looked pretty good, but back on page 2 you have a pic of the SPID and the inside of the glove box looks like a brighter blue that I think would also look good and not as common. Or you could try the 1969 511 turquoise poly, but I'm somewhat biased on that.
