i'm contemplating what color to paint my GTO and was wondering if anyone knows of any sites that show cool custom colors or custom paint jobs. just trying to find out what would look good.

Just posted this website to someone else on another forum:
http://www.autocolorlibrary.com
It just shows paint chips, I believe, but it is fun to see what colors are out there.

If you want glamour colors then go to House of Kolors metal flakes, cnadies, pearls, and a host of others.

I don't know if this helps but you can always just make your own color ie(toreador red pearl) a basic ford color with a little pearl. I did this with a 66 mustang that I restored a few years ago and it's my favorite paint color so far. So if you have access to a body or paint shop you might just get in there and play around

What year GTO? And how original is it? Changing from the original color, with a car that is mostly original, will have a significant effect on the value (negative). If it were a LeMans or a Malibu, it wouldn't be such in "issue", but GTO or an SS or other "collectable" muscle car is considered more desirable if original.
This is not to say you shouldn't paint it a different color. It's your car and your money, and you should do with it as you please. I just want to make sure you understand the ramifications of such changes.
