White???

[paulk68]

What are your thoughts on WHITE? I am really leaning towards painting my 68 Camaro white. I do not see a lot of pro touring style Camaros in white and it makes me think there has to be a reason for that. It does not help that my wife is also opposed to white. But the vision in head with the right stance and wheels, I think a clean white would look awesome. I do not want pearl or metallic white just a clean white with full polished modern either forgeline or formula 43 wheels or grey center and polished outers and a SS hood what do you guys think?



something like this but WHITE

This isn't meant to sound rude....but it will make the point......What does it matter what I, or anyone else, thinks??

You will be MUCH better served by following YOUR dream for the car instead of a mix of a thousand other people's opinions. If you already know in your head what it should look like when it's done ---follow that dream. Didnt you start this project anyway bacause no one makes a car like you think it should be made? (My reason at least)

White looks great especially with a dark color wheel. If it's what you want, go for it and ignore the refrigerator comments.

I agree. Go with what you want, not what others say or do. BUT you may want to listen to your wife... Just sayin'

Get someone to photoshop that picture in the color and style of wheels you want and see if its going to be what you hoped for. Besides, a picture is a lot less money than painting it and finding out you didn't like it.

sorry to hijack your thread, but do you know what color that camaro you posted is?

I think that's Reckley's (sp) car? If so it's Lambo Silver.

Paul - paint the car white and quit asking. Wheel color is a much better question - gold or bronze if you ask me.

Here's my 69 in white. It's plain ol' GM Olympic white from PPG. Hopefully I can swing some Forgelines this summer.

I know I know, I just need to buy a bunch of cars so I can paint them all different colors!!!!

That does look great!!!

Paint color is one of the hardest decision most guys make on a build and nothing wrong at all with asking guys what they think. But what counts most is when you pull the car cover off that baby needs to knock YOUR socks off! Go with your gut and you will love it.

[srh3trinity]

I think white is a great choice!

[indyjps]

My69 was white for 19 of the 20 years ive owned it. I like it, but time for a change to dark blue. Go white, you'll like it.

[Z06vet]

I'm a little biased, but....

People either love it or think its too plain. Mine is GM summit white.

White cars look clean all the time. If you have a straight car it makes it even better. It hides scratches and any imperfections in the paint. Also white looks insane with black wheel! Go with what you like!!

[Rod]

I have a white car, I was told that white doesn't photograph well and many magazines don't like to shoot white cars..by a magazine guy.....but screw that I still dig it

[Rick Dorion]

I also like white. What about getting the car wrapped in white? If you don't like it after a while, do something different.

[hifi875]

I say go for it. White is a great color, even better when you contrast it with some dark rims and trim. Im not a fan of chrome or polished but to each his own. I would love to ditch my chrome bumpers and door handles, everything else on my silver car is brushed.
