My car will be in primer Tuesday at the latest. It has come along way since Feb. My dilemma is every time I go to buy paint I can't make up my mind :rotz:. My choices are 75 corvette flame red for a GL or Lime light for a DMCL replica. I have everything to make it a GL but in the back of my mind I want a DMCL. I was just curious on what you guys thought as I'm having a heck of a time deciding. :shruggy:

Newbie here.  What the heck is a DMCL? Daytona ? clone?
No GL, that much I can say.  Real nice looking car, 4 spd  :drool5: Y2 Yellow?
If DMCL is anything to do with Daytona, DMCL. :2thumbs:
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

If those are the only 2 Choices.... I'd vote DMCL. Don't get me wrong I like the General, but if you go to a MOPAR show, you see several General's, and to be honest, I have never seen a DMCL clone at any I've been to.

Be sure to post some pics after you get it painted!

bull

Why not buy another one and do both?

G-man

I dont see whats good about a sublime green Charger in DMCL. The General Lee definately is nicer as far as a paint scheme goes. Chargers just look good in orange. However, considering in the back of your mind you have DMCL... you will eventualy kick yourself doing the GL and say "I Knew i shoulda done DMCL!, I KNEW IT!" yeah well too late then.

So do DMCL.

DMCL here also,,,   A Gen lee  will blend in with the rest of them.
