    White always looks good with black accents.

    :Welcome:...:Handshake:
    is the paint the only thing that needs done to have it finished? any and all mechanical should be done before paint...

    I might also suggest getting it and driving it a little first. people have a way of suggesting what color they would paint it if it was theirs...:yup:
    I get asked "what color" or they will tell me what color would be nice.
    Chip Foose even asked my what color...:slap:

    I'm in eastern North Carolina. As I understand, the car runs and drives great, and all body work is done. He says all it needs is a paint job. I'm gonna wait til I have it to decide for sure what color, but I'm really leaning towards blue of some kind.
