That color is sweet. I am sure the car will look great when you get it back together. Keep us updated.

Man glass that looks very good..I guess that why it took so long to pick a color you wanted to get it just right.

It's an aggressive pearl, yeah. The color shifts as you walk past it, too.. very neat to see in person. Pictures just don't do well at showing what it looks like. It'll look better when I can get it out in sunlight and all reassembled, and get the paint buffed and polished. That's just fresh clearcoat in the pics. Unbuffed or polished.

Phew! You are brave going with such a dark color!
Of course, for a nice show car it's not a big deal... clean all the time, babied I'm sure.

But I had a black daily-driver car once upon a time... and I absolutely love black, but I swore "never again" - every little bit of dust, every imperfection, every nick or ding shows up like it has a big neon blinking arrow pointing to each spot.

Looks nice so far - let's see the pics after buffing! :sm29:

Geo, yeah hard to keep clean, but it's getting wet sanded now, and it's kept covered and only comes out on nice days. I fell in love with that blue paint the moment I saw it, so that was pretty much a done deal for me.

Blue is my favorite color, and I didn't even know a paint that looked that good came in blue. Now I have another color to paint my car, 69 Barracuda. I thought I had it all picked out and then I just saw your pics. BTW, the color I was dead set on for a couple months now is Prowler Orange Mopar color only on Prowlers and some Vipers. But I could have sworn I've seen the same color on a PT cruiser. Before that it was Deep Amethyst Pearl, I believe that is the name, which I saw painted on a Duster at a car show. It look 100X's better than what you see a production cars.

BTW, Glass what is that color called?
