Which paint color

I'm dropping my new motor in the car in the next couple months, restoring the interior, and then repainting. I'm torn between 4 options.

Any opinions are welcome.

Re: Which paint color

The blue with silver stripes would be nice but I am partial to black. Hugger orange is very nice but I like white stripes on it. Take a look at as many photos as you can and decide from there.

Re: Which paint color

You cant really appreciate admiral blue until you see it in person. A good friend of mine had his 89 mustang painted admiral blue with 17" ROH ZSs and it was amzing to look at. The car stole attention from everything. Even when we went out with my brothers 383 LT1 Vette, my GTA, a buddies Ferrari 308, most people came up to his car believe it or not

Re: Which paint color

Re: Which paint color

If I had a choice to repaint my car it would be a Candy red or a daytona silver or a mix of both , Candy red is SO AWESOME in the sun . My bike is painted house of Klor Kandy red. Look at the House of Klor paints they make a Kandy Orange that is off the hook . I paint cars & bike on the side & house of Klor is an awesome product.

Thats my opinion!!

Re: Which paint color

my 95z28 was red, I'm done with red.

my '94 zr1 wrecked project car is admiral blue, a color I love dearly but I'm not sure it would look right on an fbody... I'm leaning toward orange.

For those who don't know admiral blue... it's a metallic blue and becomes almost purple in the right light.
