No i'm sure your right on. I just did a quick search and that's all that kept coming up.  I'll check the color charts down at my buddy's shop in the next couple days to see if I can get a chip.  I'll put it next to my car if I find it and see how big a difference it makes.

You want me to spray out a small panel with some BBO(have a half quart left) and send it to you so you can see what it will look like?

Car looks great.  Do you mind if I ask what size tires / rims you put on all 4 corners?  The stance looks perfect on your car (back tires are just right - not too small  :Twocents:).  I have the 15x8.5 AR vectors (repops) with 5 inch BS for my 68 - just need to buy tires.  I want to get it right the first time - otherwise I will be forced to "wear-out" my back tires quickly!

Thanks.

UP FRONT:  15x7   235/60/R15 BFG'S   I wouldn't dare go too much bigger there.
OUT BACK: 15x8.5 295/50/R15 BFG'S   They yell at me every now and again when going slow taking a turn on a grade when the back end squats.  Nothing I can't live with.

American Racing repops just like yours as well.

Yeah  Mike...that'll be cool!!!  I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to go with, but to actually see it up close and personal would help finalize my decision.

Ok, I'll BC/CC a panel this weekend and get your info after it's done.

Light or dark primer.  If you have an idea what primer you are going with, I'll throw a coat of that on there as well prior to paint

I imagine it'll be a light grey. I'm going to put the car in a full sealer coat and It resembles the grey primer

Yup, we got some gray sealer down there I think.  I'll probably do it Saturday.

Mike....got the sample in the mail today!!!   That's what I needed to see so I can go order this paint.  I really appreciate that!!!  I guess mine was a bit on the dark side, but if you look at the pics....it's hard to tell...
