Respray is on the Menu !

[Stolzy]

I thought I'd throw up a pic of the car before it's resprayed in about 6 days. I think i'm gonna go with the original yellow but we'll see.

What color do you guys think I should do????

Thanks

[riffman12]

cream on the inside

clean on the outside

ice cream paint job





for srs though, do like a cream / off white

[Dr.AK]

I'd do some kinda purple.

Maybe my favourite color ever:

VW Dusty Mauve LC5P, pretty desaturated purple metallic that almost looks like dark grey depending on the lighting, AWESOME color:

Really hard to capture in pictures though.

[e30pwr]

orange?

[Stolzy]

not orange. every datsun 510 does that hahah

and im doing a matte/flat color so no metalics i guess...

thanks though

[Stolzy]

also recomend some new wheel colors as well cause i wanna switch that up maybe!!!

thanks

[87e30]

I'd say a cream white leave wheels as is...

But with a white car you can choose any wheel color really.

You can still do Dusty Mauve. :D

A guy I know bought a dusty mauve mk3 as a beater and just sanded it flat:

Looks awesome in person, I'd say def. do purple!

[TonyTeeAdams]

What about going for the murdered out style.

Satin/matte black car, with black wheels too but leaving the lips of the wheels polished! And smoked lights all round and maybe polished mirror's and front bumper/fender ;)

[6erWebb]

A trick I found out recently is if you spray a base clear job without the clear, using a newer paint (like for .. say a wrx ) itl come out satin and stay that way. The draw is that youd get a sweet satin paint job in a modern color, they do it on alot of retro rods.

[Presns3]

burgundy

[hootie]

matte light green

or a light matte blue

[Stolzy]

how about off white with turquoise wheels?

or

of white with red wheels?

[Dubmd]

same color but with a little bit of gray maybe?

[das]

red

[southpaw]

grayyyyyyypes.

[schroedin]

White or black = more wheel color options. Do et.

[SlowProgress]

haha finally. i remember when you took this pic and since then ive been looking for it haha.

As for the paint...I'll be doing an easter yellow. similar to ^^^

[TillRodsFly]

I say white and leave the wheels gold but I am slightly biased.

[SlowProgress]

yeah I think I posted it on r3v not sure though, it's unedited =(

[M.Burroughs]

The blue in the OP is the best option IMO, second is Dr. Ak's suggestion of flat purple.

[Nelson]

What kind of car is that? Looks freaking amazing!

[psiglx]

that looks great

[1985zcar]

Know what would look dope? That exact color that it is right now, but with clear. haha the OG yellow is pretty cool though. Got a friend with a yellow Corona wagon.

[B Rod]

That original yellow looks awesome.

[Logan]

I think that flat color looks great!

Maybe a silver color?

[Oxer]

I have to agree :D

[Stolzy]

idk. its down to purple or yellow. maybe ill start a poll

[Oxer]

Purple for sure then..... :D


poll it.. Got pics for me yet!? got the pencil in my hand lol...

[schroedin]

Doodoo brown? :rofl



My vote is for the flat purple.

[tabasco]

Gold

[Digitalwave]

With a car as cool as that I don't think you could go wrong with any color.

[B Rod]

You could always go uber classy and do like a Lexus pearl white. That would probably be REALLY expensive though.

[Stolzy]

im definatley leaning towards yellow...

we'll see. turns out I may not be spraying it till december as I leave for school in a week and it'd be a rush to get anything done...we'll see

[ginger_snaps]
