best color for a car
hey guys. i just picked up a older camaro (1977). it needs some work but im at the point to get it painted. im looking to do it myself. i never painter a car b4, but i do have the know hows to do it, i worked in a welding shop for years and painted alot of steel. never a car. anyways, whats the best color that would not show the mess ups? its not going to be the best job in the world, so i want to cover up as much as i can. i wanted to go yellow with black racing strips. what about black with yellow strips. what do you think would look better and be easier to paint so it covers my mess ups. (dark or bright colors) any if anyone knows anything about older camaros as in the fenders, and body panels, let me know. thanks alot

Re: best color for a car
i dont know why but i think yellow looks good on most camaros, except lt1's ya the 2nd gens would look nice in yellow with black stripes , or just all black... go on ebay and compare the looks and see what fits you, its your car not ours
