90% of the time I go with something other than is reccomended, I love doing customs. Take the current monte I am working on. They suggest black, or white, I went blue.

I only follow the body directions if I am trying to make it look like one in a showroom, but for older cars, muscle cars, and for something like the 57' that you are doing, id say definitly custom, the lime sounds pretty gross too.

I agree, go with the black, or maybe a nice cherry red? depends on what colors you are most fond of.

I love blues and purples, but I think a 57' in black, or red would be pretty sweet.
