Q:
Our new truck
2006 Nissan Frontier Nismo
Dads 66' Corvette Stingray 327', 66' Pontiac GTO, and 83' 280zx that nobody wanted, so its going to the scrapyard
L28et finally pulled! who needs parts? and Monte Carlo 327, and hard to see in the back the GTO's motor 389 Big Block
And just a little poll, the GTO is going in the paint & body shop next month [where my z is right now] and we are either gonna paint it black or the maroon it is now, which one would YOU chose? thx

Well, black shows every imperfection but it sure looks sharp. If the body work is great then I would go with black.
If I weren't in Michigan I would take that 83 ZX of yours. Too bad it goes to scrap.

A:
Ditto on the black for same reasons and black is just over done.
A little darker maroon or try the 1966 Ford Candy Apple Red that Mustangs came in that year. A deep dark red that is just right with that black rag top.
Think shiny red line tires and you'll have a show stopper.
