Color schemes, 72 Vette, need ideas
Hello all,
I've had my 72 convertible since buying it off the showroom floor way back when I was a callow youth. It was red, now being restored and re-painted. Never did like the red and thinking about black with a bit of gold trim. I know, I know, I'm supposed to keep it original...but humor me. Are there any websites with photos of various color combinations?
Mine has about 160k miles, put on it in the first 3 years, rebuilt the engine about 5 years ago, now taking care of all those little scuffs and dings.
When its completed, I'm getting in it and disappearing.
Thanks for any input.
