Certainly not the original color(Ontario Orange was), the black paint is what made this '71 LT-1 so appealing to me. I love it.

Here's the link in anyone wants to have a look.

After reading through this thread, I remember why I painted mine black instead of the original WBY.

That, and I really need to put a lot of elbow grease into mine.
